Overview

Fifteen Puzzle is a sliding puzzle on a 4x4 board with fifteen numbered pieces and one empty space. The pieces are scattered, and the object is to put them in numeric order with a series of moves through the vacant space. The idea dates back to around 1880, and is credited to Noyes Chapman. More information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_puzzle Getting Started Following reset, the title screen is shown until you press any key on keyboard A to begin. The Studio II then generates a new puzzle, showing its status with a progress bar. Play can start after the board is displayed. Press reset for a new game. Moving Pieces This game uses keyboard A only. Direction keys 2, 4, 6, and 8 move the cursor, shown as a white square. Place it on top of the piece you want to move, and then press key 5 to slide the highlighted piece into the empty space. Only pieces that are horizontally or vertically adjacent to the empty space can be moved, diagonal moves are not allowed. Winning Although the traditional puzzle has multiple solutions, this version recognizes just one. You win if you can arrange the pieces in ascending order, left to right and top to bottom, the empty space at the bottom right (see figure 4). Note that hex digits A-F are used for numbers 10-15. If you can accomplish this a series of beeps will play and the game ends. Press 'Clear' and then any key. Controls are '2', '4', '6', '8' (movement), '5' (slide)
