Each player begins with a certain number of pieces (or armies) that he has to move and make attack. One of his pieces represents him-self (or the chief, or the king, or anything you want). If this piece die, the player is eliminated. The last player staying alive wins. Messages can be sent to the other players , so that alliances can be implemented. A special timer assures that the game remains dynamic.

The computer calculates a combination of five characters (each between A and J) and you have to try to find out the combination the computer has calculated. Your questions to the computer are also combinations of five characters (each between A and J). You get sets of black and/or white blocks as answers to your questions. If you get a black block as answer it means that there is one character in your try at the correct position (but you don't know which one it is). If you get a white block as answer it means that there is a character in your guess that also occurs in the solution, but at another position (but you don't know which one it is and at which position it would be correct).

The original Panex puzzle is from the Japanese Magic Company from the 1980's. Mathematicians at Bell Laboratories estimated the number of moves to swap 2 columns of order 10 to be 27,564 <= N <= 31,537. It came in two varieties: one with a blue and a yellow pyramid of order 10 on silver tiles; in the gold version pieces of each color look alike i.e. no pyramid is drawn on them), this is a little harder. The original Tower of Hanoi puzzle is the invention of Edouard Lucas and was sold as a toy in France in 1883. The legend of 64 disks in the great temple of Benares of the god Brahma is also his invention.

To run: Simply type xscrabble. This will bring up the setup box which will allow you to enter the names and displays and other info for the game to wish to play. Then click on the Start Game button, (or Load Previous if you're restarting a game). The main program, xscrab, will then be automatically called with the appropriate options. The game is saved after every turn (in "~/.xscrabble.save" of the person running it) and can be restarted by running xscrabble, entering exactly the same info, and hitting the Load Previous button. This was a student project, and there are not likely to be any future releases. Have fun, Matt Chapman.
