Puzzles > Towers of Hanoi

Patent Number 5,560,605 was granted on October 1, 1996 to Filadelfo Garcia and Lazaro R. Sanchez for a "strategy game that incorporates a stationary platform that includes a set of three peg cavities into which are inserted a set of three pegs, and a set of seven disks each having a different diameter..." A copy of the first page of their patent appears as the background for this page. The game which they patented is known as the "Towers of Hanoi."

See how well you can do in this virtual version of this game of skill and logic. Try to move all the disks onto another pole.

THE RULES:

You can only move one disk at a time
You cannot put a larger disk on top of a smaller disk.

Good luck!
