A game based on the principles of computer programming.

The game follows a rover named Tenacity as it travels across four planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. On each planet, Tenacity needs your help to complete its missions. Program Tenacity by giving it instructions to follow to help it achieve each of its objectives.
Each planet is focused on one new computational thinking principle.
- On Mercury, players are introduced to functions.
- On Venus, players are introduced to loops.
- On Earth, players are introduced to conditions.
- On Mars, players are introduced to variables.
