Logaterix - board game of the ancient Slavs

Dear friends,

I discovered an ancient game of the old Slavs called "Posunčík". I gave it a new name, Logaterix.

The game is said to be several hundred years old and was played on the ground or on a wooden board, using simply stones of two shades.

I programmed the game for PC/online so you can play it yourself, either against the AI or another human opponent.

 

I believe you will enjoy it too! I will be glad for feedback as well! Thank you in advance! ;-)

 

Enjoy!

pretty cool. reminds me a bit of tafl, a viking board game.

the time between the player move and the cpu's move is kinda long.

Thank you so much!

I didn't know the game Tafl, I'd love to explore it more!

 

P. S. Yes, the server online version has a bit longer thinking time, but the PC version should be fast...

It's not exactly my kind of game. But it's cool. I agree that the computer move takes a bit long.

 

Greetings

I've cut down on AI thinking time on the web. Hopefully it will be better (although the AI will probably be a bit dumber :-)  )

It's much better. And I won the first match I ever played completely. So I guess the AI is probably stupid. But I like to win, so it's precisely right for me.

 

I can see this game is probably very complex if the AI (or the human opponent) is clever. One has to look both for attack and defense.

 

Greetings

Peter

That makes me happy, congratulations on the win!

 

Yes, the AI tries about 3 times less combinations, so it's possible that it's a bit less attentive at level 1. But at least it doesn't deter from the game, I'll improve it somehow in time.

 

I think the board game itself is very interesting.

 

Thank you very much, Peter!
