TIS-100
Does the previous title seem too easy? Then try your luck with TIS-100. This title simulates a computer from the 70s in which we are going to have to program, literally, as was done in the 70s. We will have to see why this computer is malfunctioning and repair it, starting by printing the manual for this machine and use your own assembly language to solve this puzzle. Not suitable for the weak.
