I'm looking for some online game, where it tests our ability in boolean algebra. My cousin is young and has just learnt using logic gates. Is there any thing interesting available out there for him to practice online?

A: 

Not exactly what you are looking for, but http://www.clickmazes.com/ gives a lot of logical/mathematical puzzles. Unfortunately the site is not maintained anymore but it is still on.

where are the logic gates game in it?

"where are the logic gates game in it?" - "Not exactly what you are looking for". Seems simple to me :-)

Not online (since I'm not aware of any) but why don't you get a simple digital design book and set him to doing some of the exercises. That's if you want him to really know Boolean algebra.

If you're looking for really good logic games that will stretch the mind, Sherlock was one I used to play a lot. It's in the vein of Sudoku and Kakuro in that solutions require logic and thinking ahead. Another was "The Incredible Machine". I wouldn't have the faintest idea how to get a hold of these now but a web search may turn up something.

Check out the online modules from Virginia Tech's CS department, especially the one on Circuits. Not exactly what you were asking for, but very helpful in understanding boolean logic: http://courses.cs.vt.edu/~csonline/MachineArchitecture/Lessons/index.html
