PegSoli+ (AppID: 2083680)

Overview

"PegSoli+" is a game based on the rules of the classic board game Peg Solitaire (or Solo Noble), with some modifications. This game includes a "Problems Mode" to solve preset problems, an "Arcade Mode" to compete for speed with automatically generated problems, and an "Edit Mode" to create original problems.

Basic Rules

A peg (piece) can be moved by jumping over one other adjacent peg, and the jumped over peg is removed from the board. No more than a peg can be jumped over, and no pegs can be moved if there is already a peg at the destination. The game is cleared when there is only one peg left on the board.

Once you have one peg remaining, the problem is clear, but it can be completely cleared by meeting the following requirements.

• Solve problems within the specified number of steps: Steps are not counted if the same peg is moved consecutively. The key is to move as many consecutive pegs as possible.
  
• Centering: It is achieved when the last peg is placed in the center of the board.

Some problems have a set stock of pegs. The stocks can be placed anywhere on the board, and all stocks must be used up to complete the problem.
