Mensch Ärgere Dich Nicht

History:

This was my first attempt to write a game with artificial intelligence. It started on the ZX Spectrum, written standing in front of an exhibited Speccy in a local shop. That time I simply could not afford any computer... Some time later I build a ZX81 so the game was ported. And another port happened when I bought my Atari 1040STF.

Please don't expect too much of these little programs. Even though they show how a computer can evaluate the game's situation and react accordingly.

Description:

"Mensch Ärgere Dich Nicht" is a German board game. The name means "Do not get angry, buddy". Upto four players throw a dice in turns and decide which stone they move. You will find the detailed rules in the web ;-)
