Enhancing Student Understanding of Digital logic and Computer Architecture Through Turing Complete Game Challenges

Turing Complete 1 is a game released on the Steam 2 platform designed to teach digital logic and computer architecture concepts through a series of challenges and problems.Its skill-tree approach covers digital logic, binary arithmetic, and memory.The end goal is to create a turing complete computer through building blocks developed during each different section of the tree.In this paper, we suggest adapting and modifying problems from the game to emphasize key comprehension points in the students' coursework to both gauge understanding and build a more dynamic skill set with logic gates.In addition to being a superb source of content for labs or homework assignments, the game also provides students with an excellent sandbox and simulation tool to develop and experiment with their ideas.
