Description

An Ataxx clone known for beating Extreme Ataxx and other Ataxx clone AIs.
This game is played on a 6x6 grid (Where as 7x7 is the norm). Players take turns moving one of they're pieces either one or two spaces horizontally, vertically or diagonally (24 possible moves) . The destination must be empty. In a one space move, a copy piece remains in the vacated space. No copy is made in a two space move. All the opponent pieces in adjacent squares (horizontally, vertically or diagonally) of the destination are 'flipped' to match the player's own. Players cannot pass their turn unless no legal move is possible. The winner is the player that has the most pieces when the board is full (no further legal moves are possible) OR if the player manages to eliminate all of his opponent's pieces.
