And yes, I will accept an ordered list.

So, given that I thought that I had already tried any possible moves, let's shed our assumptions and think outside the box!

In this order, please:


f8-e8

f8-g8

f8-g7

Hopper x Backup Dancer (c8)

f7-e8

f8-f6

The Craven captures Backup Dancer (c8)
....what?

If none of those work, I seriously have no clue, because I then, obviously, don't know how the pieces are allowed to move.
....what?

f8-e8, f8-g8, f8-g7, and Hopper x Backup Dancer (c8) are invalid, but f7-e8 is valid.

Since he now only has one valid move, can we assume he takes it?

The player must find the valid move themselves.

Thanks for the interest! I was going to look into doing another game, but I may do Penultima as well.

Pretty sure this won't work, but worth a try:
e6-f8


If invalid, then:

g8-g7

This
shouldn't
work, but if it does, I think I know why.
....what?
