What players think
The recurring themes across 139 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The "optimization challenge" is to find a solution that is 35 lines or shorter!
As such, all there is to say is that it is made correctly and the exercises are good, and perhaps it is the best game of this genre for students and beginners, or at least those who would rather type their programs than use the drag-and-drop interface of Human Resource Machine; while SHENZHEN I/O and Silicon Zeroes are priced similarly and both offer a far richer and more challenging experience, I thought the price of Comet 64 was appropriate at 64% off in the autumn sale.
Nor does the Comet 64 have anything like the real C64's graphics and sound capabilities.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
No recurring complaints surfaced in this sample.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
