How to Play

Click a peg to pick up the top disk, then click another peg to place it. You can only place a smaller disk on top of a larger one. Move all disks from the left peg to the right peg!

Tips

• •The minimum moves needed is 2^n - 1 (n = number of disks).
• •Start by solving smaller sub-problems recursively.
• •Use the middle peg as temporary storage strategically.
• •Plan several moves ahead so you never block the disk that needs to move next.
• •Practice with three or four disks first to internalize the pattern before tackling larger stacks.
