Hanoi is Ian Marsh’s iPhone adaptation of an old game called The Towers of Hanoi. The object is to move discs of varying sizes from left to right with the only catch being that you can’t put a larger disc on top of a smaller one. That doesn’t sound too hard, right?
This game has survived since its invention in 1883 because it’s fun despite being incredibly simple. The gameplay does get kind of stale as the difficulty increases, but if you like the nice photographic backdrops that each new level is set against that might be enough to motivate you to soldier on and keep solving the puzzles. If it’s not then you can always choose to continue the game later.
With all the crappy games in the App Store, many of which cost money, Hanoi is definitely worth trying out. It might not keep you occupied for hours on end but it’s engaging and some of the background scenery alone is worth the download.
