Great app at a bargain price! Gets great reviews on both iOS and steam
Human Resource Machine is a puzzle game. In each level, your boss gives you a job. Automate it by programming your little office worker! If you succeed, you'll be promoted up to the next level for another year of work in the vast office building. Congratulations!
Don't worry if you've never programmed before - programming is just puzzle solving. If you strip away all the 1's and 0's and scary squiggly brackets, programming is actually simple, logical, beautiful, and something that anyone can understand and have fun with!

anyone who already knows how to program (or much about technology / value for money) will have an Android. that's why this isn't on the Play store.

I went from an iphone 3gs to a Samsung S3 running whatever version of android was about at that time. Used it for about a year with and without Samsungs appalling Touch Whizz interface.
A value judgement about my skills as a developer would be wrong for me to make as I am obviously biased.
However, I am currently the highest paid developer in my organisation which employs several hundred technical staff and also in charge of a small team there.

you tried an OS once (probably version 1), then decided it's never worth using? you must be a terrible developer then.

Yet you can still be baited on Internet forums?

Great game, but please don't learn programming from it - it's basically a visual form of BASIC language, with loops and jumps, not really good coding practice anymore for anything serious.

I have been a professional systems developer for 25 years and I have had an iphone since they came out.
Of my programming team 6 have androids and 5 have iphones.
The higher paid developers have iphones.
Tried android once and hated it.

Shame that Android doesn't help you to learn how to use capital letters.

Great game. A few tough logic puzzles and a great intro to some basic programming concepts (but don't let that put you off)
