About this game

This game is inspired by a public task from experimental psychology about planning several moves before making them. It is an original version made for this site, not the task itself.

When you finish, the summary of your play style shows which end of the "Planning" bar your way of playing leans toward in this session: "Adjusts on the go" or "Plans before moving". It is not a score or a percentile, it does not compare you with other people, and neither end is better than the other.
