What is this guide about

This small guide is for players who are completely new to binary logic. It shows how the names of the gates correspond to words in a sentence and how they can be used to create circuits by simply describing what you see in a truth table.

This concept might be perceived as obvious for people with background knowledge, but is still something that each of us had to learn at some point.

Your whole description on describing the truth table on XOR as not green and then building it out helped clarify things in my head quite a bit. Really appreciate you including examples for other gates as well!

For anyone else still stuck, I also found it very helpful to watch some youtube videos on logic gates. One specific video described AND as Input 1 * Input 2 and OR as Input 1 + Input 2. This combined with simplifying things down to green as 1 and red as 0 greatly helped truth tables make more logical sense to me.

This is really helpful.

I thought I was just too stupid for this game, but this breakdown really made it click and I was instantly able to complete the first several levels that initially just completely stumped me.
