Ataxx

Ataxx is a turn-based board game played on a 7x7 grid. Each player starts with two pieces which are located on the corners. Each turn, one piece is moved either one or two fields (diagonal moves are allowed); if the piece is moved on a field which borders on the original field, a duplicate piece is created. When one or multiple of the opponent's pieces adjoin the new position, they are converted to the player's colour. Moving is mandatory (unless there is no legal move possible) and the match is over as soon as all fields are filled up. The winner is the player who has more pieces on the board at this point. Some fields on the board may be blocked off and a single player can compete against AI opponents of varying difficulty.
