Description

This app is the resurrection of the famous plastic 'Beat the computer' puzzle from the eighties. The essence of this puzzle is that there are ten pieces which you have to fit in a rectangle to complete this puzzle. The computer (in those days) found exactly 783 different solutions to do this, which is quite unbelievable if you look at this puzzle ! The question then was and still is: Are you the genius to find all of them and match the computer ? More then thirty years later you now have this app to support you in this tremendous task. You have all the controls to move, turn, flip or drop the pieces. When you have completed the puzzle, you can submit it, it will be checked and every new one is stored in your phone. This automatic checking and storing of these solutions is ofcourse a huge advantage if you think back at those early days. You had to draw every solution on paper and do all the comparing yourself. But there is more power. You can list all the stored solutions and load or preview them as a base to find more solutions. It can be very important to study (a just submitted) solution to find a few others, based on the symmetry ! You have two options available. You can set the number of colors to change the way the pieces are visualized and you can turn the sound on or off. The ultimate goal is to find more and more solutions in trying to reach those magic 783 solutions, whenever you have some time on your hands (it is addictive).
