eptaxia the game
Here's my first program I deliver here. It's a simple game : eptaxia. This was an old mind game I used to play since I was in high school (in boring classes). I don't know it's real name.

You can also get the source codes of the game. Below, in this page, you'll find a link to Code Project where it resides.

All is free of course.

note : .NET Framework 2.0 needed. If it's not already installed on your PC, the setup procedure will help you to install it from microsoft.com.

The Code Project
I've submitted the code to Code Project. You can get the source codes from there. And if you find it useful, please vote for me.

You can get the article from :

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/eptaxia.asp

By the way, if you don't know already, I highly recommend Code Project. They have thousands of well documented and free codes, applications, etc.

How to Play

Bilgin Esme, August 2006

The Game

The game consists of one main screen and a settings form. The figure below explains all the functions of the buttons.

Basic snapshot of the game

The Rules

The rules are simple.

1. For the very first movement, you choose any one of the empty cells. This cell will be labeled as "1".

2. Then, choose your next move. Next move will be as similar to "L" shaped "horse movement" of chess.

3. Try to fill all the cells of your chosen configuration. If you have no movement option left before filling the table, you fail.

The original of the game is 7x7. But you can try other dimensions as 5x5, 6x6, 8x8 and 9x9. All are possible configurations.
