~* How To Play *
~ Knight's Move is based on the classic game "Knight's Tour". You play
on a 8x8 square chess board but you only have one piece to move, the
Knight. The Knight has a unique way of moving...and can concievably
land on each square of the board...which is the object of the game, to
move the Knight in such a way that you land on each square once and only
once. This is a game of thought, the further you can think ahead the better
you will do. If you don't consider each move you will find yourself stuck
in a corner with nowhere to go.
The game begins by the computer randomly placing the Knight on a square.
From this point you make your moves around the board until you can no
longer move, at which point the game will be over. The number of games you
can play a day is configured by the sysop as is the number of make up days.
~The Knight can move in the following ways:
~┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
