Description from the packaging.

And you thought understanding computers would be difficult. Well it's not if you have the right teacher- a teacher who makes learning a lot of fun. That's why you need Chipwits, the lovable little robots that teach the principles of computer programming.

Start in the workshop, where you program the Chipwit for adventures. Should he look for a pie first? Or zap that Electro-crab over in the corner? Programming a Chipwit is easy, because the workshop has pictures that represent the actions he can perform. You can make a Chipwit move, eat a piece of pie or even sing a song!

When your program is ready, send Chipwit on any of eight different adventures. Watch your Chipwit try to solve the Mystery Matrix, untangle Octopus Garden or explore Chipwit Caves. If he makes a mistake, simply return to the workshop and change his program. The more he learns, the more you learn, too!

Chipwits. Who would have thought learning could be so much fun?
