About

BackSlide 1.2 BackSlide is a Java implementation of a puzzle by Christian Freeling. Obviously the history of BackSlide goes back to the invention of the '15' puzzle, commonly attributed to Sam Loyd. But it is much nicer than "yet another '15' puzzle". Viewed on one side, it has 652 different solutions (as opposed to Loyd's 1). 8 of these are also meta-solutions, that is: both sides of the puzzle are solved simultaneously. All 652 solutions are included in a separate SlideShow applet, while 4 meta-solutions are accessible from a pop-up menu. If you find one other meta-solution, you will get permanent access to _all_. Alternatively, you can register for US$5 and get full access. Please see ReadMe.html (within the package) for all the details. The package contains all the necessary files to play BackSlide off-line. It requires a Java enabled web browser, for instance Netscape Navigator 3.0 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0. BackSlide should be compatible with Java 1.0 (Netscape 2.0.1/Win95). BackSlide is US$5 shareware, copyright 1996-97 by MindSports, http://www.mindsports.net/ You can preview and play BackSlide on-line, or download the package, from there. Changes since v1.1: - New site and email addresses (!) - New style (of the enclosing html pages) - No noticable changes in the Java applets
