About Pure Logic
Pure Logic is a puzzle game based on logic in its raw and pure form. Use your deductive reasoning skills to conquer more than 200 unique puzzles.
Each puzzle consists of an array of interconnected logic gate symbols. Some of the input/output signals are initially set, some are not. The challenge is to figure out and set the remaining signals so that all symbols are satisfied.
No prior knowledge of logic gates is required to start playing. The in-game training grounds let you explore the different symbols, and you'll quickly discover and learn the basic rules.
There are no time limits. You can enjoy solving all the puzzles at your own pace.
Pure Logic was initially released with a last-step-only undo mechanism. Due to popular demand "The Big Flexibility Update" was released in June 2023, adding support for unlimited undo. The update also added the possibility to change any set signal directly to the other colour/state, or reset it back to its original unset state. This opens up for a wide range of solving strategies.
The gameplay is based on real-world logic gate symbols and the Boolean functions they represent. Logic gates are the basic building blocks of digital electronics and computer hardware. Boolean functions play a crucial role in all levels of computer programming.

Exactly what the title says: Pure Logic puzzles. I've been working with logic gates for a long time but something about this game gave me a new understanding of their functions. I feel like I now have a more holistic idea of which gate to choose for which situation IRL. Highly recommend. EDIT: A comment on "guessing": Several reviewers have pointed out that later levels require "guessing." This isn't exactly true. All advanced logic games (logic grids, Sudoku, etc.) will at some point have a defined set of possible answers based on the current state of the board. So you'll have to choose one of the set and see if it works. Often this set will only contain 2 possible solutions (one of the gates will have a signal that will be ON or OFF). I disagree with the word "guess" here. If you've narrowed the entire solution set (BIG) down to only 1-3 solutions, that's called "winning."
Very simple idea but good execution. If you like, well "Pure Logic", this is for you.
This is a really fun and entertaining way for a beginner to learn about logic gates. I highly recommend this game to anybody who is interested in learning about Computer Science.
would recommend to anyone who enjoys minesweeper, the puzzles are not too complex but enough to make you pay atention. Although I admit game lacks a bit of QoL when you fail a level because of very trivial mistake that can be fixed in 2 clicks but now you have to redo the level
Fun and educational! Dropping $5 is not a bad investment if you like logic puzzles!
