Description

Build machines to solve puzzles. Earn new parts as the puzzles get harder.

TRIAL BY WIRE turns the puzzles and questions of computability into a game you can play. Over 130+ levels, you build machines to solve increasingly complex problems, earning new machine parts as you go. It is hard, rewarding, and fun. Cy-An Borg, your robot friend, is there to help, and for comic relief. It's free in your browser with no ads and no account needed.
