Details About Tower of Hanoi Game:

The Tower of Hanoi is a logical puzzle involving three towers and multiple disks of varying sizes. The goal is to transfer all the disks from Tower 1 to Tower 3, following specific rules:

  • Only one disk can be moved at a time.
  • A larger disk cannot be placed on a smaller disk.
  • Disks can be temporarily placed on Tower 2 to facilitate movement.

The minimum number of moves required to complete the puzzle optimally follows the formula: Minimum Moves = 2ⁿ - 1, where n is the number of disks. While players can use more moves than necessary, the challenge lies in solving it using the fewest possible moves, making it an excellent exercise in strategy and problem-solving.
