This game has been claimed to be "unbeatable" even though some people have found ways to beat it. The creater has corrected all of the known mistakes. Please post any ways of beating it. Label the blocks as if they were in the right-handed side NumPad. (Number 1 box is the bottom-left box, then go to the right then upward.)

Here's the first way of winning: 8-4-7-9 in NumPad processure. (4-8-7-9 is the same thing.)

It took a few goes, but I beat it too. I really don't understand why the creator didn't just map out the game possibilities and use simple if-then statements if he really wanted to make it unbeatable. But I guess its a nice exercise to try to get the computer to 'think'. I don't know though, with some predictive planning and backtracking it wouldn't be difficult to do that either.

He needs work on the game AI, if the game always goes to the same spots for it's first move then it's predictable how to win :D
