Good But Could be Great – Human Resource Machine Review

This is a really great concept and fun to play. But they need to decide if their goal is to teach people to be smarter or to make them feel stupid. The only help you are given is in the form of either an example of the result or being chided when you get something wrong. This is an inventive and sly way of teaching without being overbearing. However, it gets frustrating in some of the higher levels. Like having to find out that you can add and subtract letters just by chance. Some of the instructions seem to be deliberately misleading. And the lack of additional commands as you progress is needlessly unrealistic. Why not make them available then make the more challenge bit the optimization of not using them? Overall, I had fun with the game and think it would be a great teaching tool for kids. But they need to make it more accessible if they don't want people to just hit a level they can't pass and abandon the game. And new puzzle packs would be great.
