Hanoi Tower Touch

Seems overly sensitive — disks I didn’t tap going to shafts I didn’t tap. And would be great if players could save partially completed games and restart from a save point rather than having to start all overto get a perfect score.

Great to see a working tower of Hanoi game on mobile again. There are some ads but they are fairly short and don't pop up often (thanks devs!). The game is user friendly and clean with some quality of life settings you can change so definitely check the settings once you start. I would note for anyone coming to play, that you almost certainly will not beat the largest puzzle. The minimum number of moves for that one is over 67 million. If you took one second per move, it would take you over two years to complete. That is assuming you make zero mistakes and never take your eyes off the game in that time. It does save your board state so you could technically do it while having a regular life, but it would likely take decades and you would have to make sure your phone survives that long as well as be able to recognize exactly where you were in the puzzle based on the board state, which can be difficult because the first easy state to recognize will take over a year to get to. You can recognize harder states if you have trained your eyes, but imagine having to do this for a 67 million step puzzle. How many board states would you need to be able to recognize? Far too many I think.

Plays an add every time you open a level, registers you trying to close the add but doesn’t close.

There are ads before and after every mission. It takes less than ten seconds to “solve” the first one. You will spend more time watching ads than playing the game

Long tortuous ads every time you start a level. If there’s a way to turn them off it is well hidden (probably need to watch an add to get to settings). The game itself works fine. Graphics are boring but effective.

The animations to play this game has an option to be sped up, but even the faster animations are too slow for me as a player. As a speed runner of ToH, the animations need to be nonexistent for competitive play, otherwise the timer has no value on this app. I would also like to see the disks and pillars minimized in size. The visual clutter does bog down faster players. I won’t recommend this app until they accommodate ToH speed runners.

For such a basic game, it has too many ads

This game has lots of good features and it’s great. I have so much fun just completing chipping away at the harder levels and trying to perfect my score. I love mastering the algorithm and getting faster and faster. Only two problems. First of all, the leaderboards. There are multiple hackers at the top of a few leaderboards that have completely impossible scores. I believe on level 13 someone has a score of 5. Second of all, it’s very, very hard to notice, but, when you notice it it completely sets of your concentration. The discs slightly vibrate up and down a pixel or 2 very fast. I don’t think about it often, but when I stop to breath to continue playing my level I see the vibrating discs and sometimes I completely forget what I’m doing. One time it caused me to mess up level 13 ~1800 moves in. If these problems are fixed this might just be my favorite game! Edit: Thanks for fixing the level 13 leaderboard, I also noticed level 10 has a score of 1022, 1 below the best possible score of 1023. Edit: Level 10, Level 9, Level 7, and Level 4 all have impossible scores. Thanks for fixing level 13!

Yea it does that. I played 16 and when I clicked on it (question mark) out of curiosity my entire progress was restarted just like that. It would be nice if SOMETHING was done about it. Because if someone clicks that and their progress restarts they’d wanna quit life.

lots of fun to learn the correct algorithm
