Other Resources

• Scratch - This is a block-based programming language. It is not HTML/CSS/JS, but it introduces a lot of coding concepts with blocks, so that you don't have to worry as much about typing every letter and symbol right. Instead of typing commands, you drag blocks together.

Shell/Terminal Games

• Terminus - I thought this was really cool. It's like a text adventure game where you have to use bash commands to move around and solve puzzles.
• clmystery - Command-line murder mystery.
• Bandit - Must be connected to the internet to play, because this game involves actually logging in to other computers. Very realistic, because you are actually using a real shell to play.
