One of the early levels called "Prison" was a metaphor for my mind trying to escape its clutches. I spent 40 mins and then had to look it up.
However, playing this game is much more fun than staring at the blinking cursor that is my lack of motivation to learn Python.
I find it's easier to be motivated to code/learn code when working on something personally useful and/or meaningful rather than just following tutorials.
Having a mentor, teammate, or end user that you care about helps as well.
