Alan's Automaton Workshop

Alan's Automaton Workshop is a steampunk puzzle game focused on programming challenges. As a novice engineer, you join Alan at his new automaton workshop and build machines to solve clients’ problems, from improving working conditions and providing entertainment to changing the world.

Design automatons

You create automatons by arranging nodes and arrows with different hardware devices, then test your designs against each level’s problems. Levels allow for many possible solutions, and you can try to improve your results after completing them by using fewer instructions or achieving faster execution times.

Programming challenges

The game has over 40 step-by-step levels, starting with basic loops and conditional statements and progressing to advanced algorithm topics. As Alan’s business expands, increasingly powerful automatons draw the attention of intelligence agencies, changing the course of the game.

Create your own puzzles

A level editor lets you challenge friends, and sandbox mode lets you create your own puzzles.
