DNAvsCPU

DNAvsCPU (a.k.a. 17) is a Multi-Generation, Multi-Level iPhone/iPad game of strategy, where you pit your skill in planning ahead against my internal and learn-on-the-fly algorithms.  17 attempts to employ some simple Artificial Intelligence techniques to improve play, so my performance may improve over time.

Below is an array of boards (each at mid-game) and some other random screen shots.
  1. [Upper Left] DNA (Green) to move and win in 2.  How?  What do you think of CPU's last move?  What would you have done?
  2. [Upper Right] Blue to move and has a sure win in 2.  How?   If instead it is Green's turn, Green also has a forced win in 2.  How?
