Specially the Animal Turtle offer different appearances which shows the possibilites how to use the turtle.
Wild Turtle
WLAN Tutle
The WLAN Turtle is at least connected with a remote control. You can see this as the small tail of the wild turtle is expanded to an antenna.
The remote control for this turtle offers buttons to move the turtle around in the world. The turtle can move foreward and backward, up and down, turn right and left. The turtle does not need to "walk" on the ground but is able to fly ... that seems to be a bit strange, but remember that most blocks in Mintetest can stay in the air without any help or other blocks under it.
This easy turtle can be used to understand that programming means to give commands in sequences. As the turtle only knows a limited number of commands the programmer needs to find the steps to use those commands to bring the turtle to the goal. As the turtle cannot remove any block it must find its way between the blocks.
For the owner of the turtle it does not bring much benefit. But may be it can be a step to climb up an obstacle.
Digging Turtle
The Digging Turtle is equiped with a saftey helmet and offers the possibility to dig and put blocks in the world.
