Ataxx is a game on a square board (7x7 fields) for two players. Red pieces play against blue pieces. At the beginning of the game each player starts with two pieces; red begins. When it is his turn, the gamer moves one of the pieces one or two spaces vertically, horizontally or diagonally to a target field. In the target field, a new piece of the same color appears.
When the piece has been moved only one space , the original piece is maintained. However, if the piece has been moved two spaces, the original piece disappears and only the new piece is maintained.
All adjacent pieces around the target field change their color: e.g. when the gamer moves a red piece to a target field next to blue pieces, those blue pieces become automatically red.
The game ends when all fields on the board are filled or when a player has no more possibility to make any move.
The winner at the end of the game is the player with highest number of pieces on the board.
Multiple CPU Difficulties included (Easy, Medium, Hard, Extreme).
