I stumbled upon this game.

http://www.ebaumsworld.com/pearl.shtml

pretty simple rules but pretty hard to beat the computer.

It's somewhat evident that this is a solved game. while trying to figure out the algorithm, I stumbled upon an easy way to beat the computer without having to solve the game.

I'm not going say how I beat the game for the benefit of the other readers.

if you figure out the solution, could you PM me? Thanks.

BTW, I figure out the solution for 2 rows (easy) and I think I got 3 rows (not sure)

Thanks.

 

i've been playing that shit for 2 years. still can't get it.

 

i've lost twice and i'm sick and tired of that fool laughing

 

BTW, if you beat the game, it'll take you to a website where you can play Pearl 1, 2, or 3. The Pearl 3 is pretty hard to beat.

 

i beat it on the first try

Well, if you can't beat him, you cheat. That is what I did. I feel great now haha.

 

That is one annoying laugh

 

Did anyone get past level 13 on pearls 3? That is really hard!

 

 

I'm fiddling with it. I'll get back to you when I'm finished with my analysis.
