AbaCruX

Introduction
AbaCruX is a luxurious implementation of the well-known game peg solitaire. The game features great graphics, full animation, sound effects and a great interface. Additionally AbaCruX keeps score in the form of five completion levels for each of the available puzzles that range from "attempt" to "fully solved". The latter is awarded only if a single remaining ball is left in the board's center. These solution levels are displayed in the puzzle selection list and can be reset. There are 30 different puzzles altogether, 15 puzzles in the regular style and 15 in the French style with more to come.
Goal of the Game
The goal of the game is to eliminate as many game pieces as possible. A puzzle is solved when only one game piece remains and is located in the very center of the board. To eliminate a game piece one of the neighboring pieces jumps over the targeted one into an empty location next to the target. Only horizontal and vertical moves are allowed.
Solution Status
In AbaCruX there are 5 different possible solution statusses. They range from untouched (blue cube) to finished (green star). The current solution status has a checkmark under it. In order from left to right there are:
- untouched (never tried)
- started, but not great
- decent effort (3 pieces left)
- not bad (1 remaining piece, not in the center)
- solved (last piece is in the center)
Settings
To get to Settings, just tap the Settings button on the button bar at the bottom of your screen. Here you can silence the sound for the game, adjust the selection magnification and reset the solution status for all puzzles. The latter is undoable, so take care with this setting. Selection magnification refers to how large the piece you are dragging is getting. Someone with bigger fingers might want to set this to the extreme right, so the selected game piece remains visible under one's fingers.
