The Hanoi Towers Lite

For Enthusiasts of Mathematical Puzzles

The Towers of Hanoi, also known as the Tower of Hanoi, Tower of Brahma, or Lucas' Tower, is a puzzle with a mathematical basis. It consists of three rods and a set of disks of different sizes, arranged in a conical stack with the largest at the bottom and the smallest on top.

The objective is to move the entire stack of disks from the left rod to the right rod in the fewest possible moves, following these three strict rules:

* Only one disk may be moved at a time.

* Only the top disk from any rod can be moved to another rod, which may be empty or contain other disks.

* A larger disk can never be placed on top of a smaller disk.

The game progresses through levels. Once all disks are successfully transferred to the right rod, the current level is complete and a new one begins. Each new level adds another disk to the starting stack on the left rod, increasing the challenge and complexity.

Upon completing a level, a results dialog appears showing the following information:

* The level number you finished

* The time elapsed to complete it

* Whether you achieved a new time record

* A 3-star ranking based on:

1. Using the minimal number of moves

2. Making no errors or illegal moves

3. Setting a new time record

To win the game, the player must successfully complete all 7 levels.

At the conclusion, the game displays a final results chart summarizing all completed levels, including completion times, records set, counts of valid and invalid moves, the 3-star ratings earned, and which of the 6 achievements were unlocked. The achievements are:

Achievements:

1. The First 3 Stars: Unlocked upon earning your first 3-star rank.

2. 3 Impeccable Levels: Awarded for achieving a 3-star rank in three consecutive levels.

3. 4 Consecutive Time Records: Unlocked for setting a new time record in three levels.

4. ¡Unstoppable!: Awarded for setting a new time record in five levels.

5. Game Completed: Unlocked for finishing all levels of the game.

6. Best Game Time: Awarded for completing the entire game in the shortest total time.

We hope you enjoy this entertaining and intellectually stimulating mathematical game.
