The most complete Knight's tour game on the playstore. Includes the game and a powerfull solver.

The knight move is unusual among chess pieces. When it moves, it can move to a square that is two squares horizontally and one square vertically, or two squares vertically and one square horizontally. The complete move therefore looks like the letter L. (and all symetries)

Your goal is to move the knight from square to square and to completely fill the chess board ending on the 64th square without jumping twice on the same square.
And it is even better if you can complete a close loop which means when the last move #64 allows to jump to the initial position (you'll then get the "loop medal")

Seems simple ... just try it and you'll finish either crazy or addicted !

To move the knight just press an allowed square.

To identify the allowed squares you may press the "Hint" button.

If you want to undo a move, simply press on the knight last position. You can repeat this how often you wish.

The "Nb" button allows to display or hide the sequences of jumps on the squares.

The "line" button shows or hide the ride of the knight with a blue line.

The "Move !" button is for lazy players ;-) needing to cheat ! Just press on it and the knight will move to the best (internal alogrithm) next move. If you want to completely solve the game, do a long press on this button ...

Enjoy !
