Abstract : Logical reasoning is a basic mental ability that is necessary for problem-solving, decision-making, and computational thinking. With technology playing a greater part in the education sector, code games have become an efficient teaching tool to develop logical reasoning skills among students. This research investigates how coding games, such as AI- based adaptive platforms, assist in building systematic thinking, pattern identification, and problem solving skills among learners between the ages of 7 and 15. Through the inclusion of both quantitative and qualitative methods of research, such as student evaluation, instructor feedback, this study assesses the efficacy of coding games in cultivating logical thinking. The results of the study bring to light the advantages of game-based learning, especially AI-based coding platforms, in encouraging participation, flexibility, and teamwork.
