This game was originally designed as a substrate for experimenting with procedural puzzle generation (for generating interesting puzzles given a rules set, not for generating new rules sets). I thought I'd post it here, since it ended up being kind of fun to play in it's own right, not just an algorithmic experiment.

You have "overflow: hidden" in the CSS for the body tag, which makes it impossible to read the full text of "how to play" on my screen.
Unfortunately the overflow: hidden is needed for the touch event handling to work properly. But there's probably some reasonable solution based on resizing / scaling instead.

#16However... I would re-label the « Back » button as « Home » and add a « Back » button that undoes the last move...
