Tower of Hanoi

Author Comments

If you have never played the Tower of Hanoi game, then here are the instructions:
Your goal is to move all the disks from the leftmost tower to the rightmost tower. However, there are some rules:
1) You can only move a disk which is on the top of its tower.
2) You can only move a disk onto another disk which is larger than it.

You really only win if you win in (2^n)-1 moves, where n is the number of disks. You don't have worry about calculating that though, I have convieniently put that in the game :P

Controls:
1) Use the Mouse to drag a disk to another tower.
2) or, you can use the keys 1, 2, and 3. They will select the top disk of a tower, and then you press the number of key corresponding to the tower which you want to place that disk.

I know you guys are great at attacking every miniscule detail of a thing, so please do. I would like to know what I need to fix. And if you have a suggestion like 'add music', please give an example of what kind of music to add. You cannot post a comment more than once, so you need to be as specific as possible.

Classic Tower of Hanoi game brought to the world of flash. Nothing new so no points for creativity. It could use more razzle dazzle and more to do.

This was made on 5/6/06, and I am only the fourteenth person to review it.

(( lol Amusing ))

~~REVIEW~~
This was interesting not much to do, it was entertaining and amusing, could use some improved graphics and more detail even more game options would be nice.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
An interesting game, needs more though.

~~OVERALL~~
Fun but needs much more then whats there.

~X~

Well, it is based off of a game that was invented a while ago. I didn't really have much leeway in creating the game, if I was to stay true to the real game. I see your point, though, and it would be interesting to add more to this classic game.

Nice

I can't say how well I thought the game was explained because I already knew how to play. Nicely made, but as some others have said it could use some added style, like some nice graphics, sound effects, even music (togglable of course)

Anyway I faved it so I can play it later.

WTF....

What are you supposed to do? Just shift some blocks around? Would be better with instructions that actually point out an objective.

ilikerps responds:

You move blocks from one tower to the other. It may sound plain, but doing so is harder than it may look and it requires much logic. It doesn't sound like you'd be too good at it.

Goodstuff

Always loved that classic, solved it up to 7, then I decided building an algorithem that solves it would be funner, so I downloaded it and built one in javascript that solves it for me :) funstuff, always loved the concept.
