This game helped me get hired because I could put "designed a Turing complete computer from scratch" on my resume. 10/10

Never thought I'd understand how a basic CPU is actually built. Insanely good game

This game taught me more about computer architecture than my university’s computer hardware course that cost thousands of dollars

There have been a number of games which follow this same general concept: build a CPU from logic gates up. It's basically like learning basic CPU architecture through Nand2Tetris, but instead packaged as a "game" consisting of a series of puzzles. Other games following this principle include MHRD, Hardware Engineering, and Silicon Zeroes, and Prime Mover. There are at least a few others out there, those are just the ones that come to my mind. Naturally, they're all pretty much the same game, but each packaged and presented in distinct ways. So how does this compare? MHRD uses an HDL-like language rather than drag-and-drop wiring; it is a similar aesthetic to TIS-100. I think some users would prefer the cheaper price and may have a text preference over the visual drag-and-drop of the other games, but people who know less about computers or programming probably wouldn't enjoy it as much. Hardware Engineering unfortunately was never completely polished and is removed from sale on Steam. It was mostly just basic, drag-and-drop components and wiring. Prime Mover is more is more of a Zach-like game with more abstracted puzzles which will be more interesting and enjoyable if you already know basic CPU architecture and don't find these other games challenging. It's not so much about making CPUs as they exist in the real world, as it is an abstracted circuit system that makes for more unique puzzles. Silicon Zeroes is probably the most similar to Turing Complete, with a solid amount of visual polish, a very basic narrative, and and clean, accessible interface and design. If I had to recommend one, I would probably recommend Silicon Zeroes as one that is a little more polished for a similar price and playing experience. But I'm still enjoying Turing Complete, it feels like it is a fairly beginner-friendly game and would be more comparable if the developers returned to give it a little more polish. Maybe a little more explanation, and making the components a little more visually intuitive (I think it gets a little difficult to distinguish the pins on some of the components at a glance; you have to remember whether pins were save/load/etc. Wiring also gets pretty messy, stuff like that). I still recommend the game, especially for more casual players who are not as concerned with all the details, optimization, etc..

Spend $40,000 on a computer science degree, or $20 on this game and learn the same stuff. Your choice.
