Mystic Robots

Because we could.

App available here: https://mysticrobots.com

Items to figure out

• Identify how we'll store the high scores
• Devise a solver
• Single player, Single Player vs computer, 2-player, 2-player over network, websocket, integrations?
• Identify all the different types of plays aside from single player (which would be the first one)

Solver

The largest problem to solve which may enable us to offer varying levels of complexity in the game is the solver. How do you devise a way to get a specific robot into the goal in the smallest number of moves. Alone is one level, and using the other robots is another level of complexity.
