Can some old people here help me maybe? I’m looking for an educational game from the late 80s or early 90s, most likely written in GW-BASIC. It explained logical operations to kids.

The game showed several mechanical hands that you could retract or expand using levers. The goal was finding the right sequence to put a ball down without it damaging anything. At first the levers controlled the hands directly, later through various junctions (logical ops).

Does anyone know the game or a remake?

@zleap Simpler than this in fact. Here you have to build things. With the game I meant the arrangement was already fixed. You merely had to retract one hand after another so that the ball landed softly on the hand below it.
