title: An educational game for learning programming?
body: <p>Is there any fun, educational game (maybe a flash game, etc.) that help learning the concept of programming and training your brain to think like a programmer?</p>
  
  <p>Actually, I am not the one who will be playing it; it'd be my friend instead.  I tried to help out my best friend through the university Java course (at my university, it is a kinda "sucky" course). I have practiced programming for many years, so for me it is not a problem. However, my best friend, whose major is not in computer engineering (but must take this course due to it being required), has a very hard time being introduce to Java by the boring professor and very confusing textbook.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to simplify many context for my friend, but still it seems he gets bored with those confusing context very fast. Therefore, if possible, I'd like to introduce it to him in a more enjoying way such as a game.</p>
