Tower of Ionah


Turm von Ionah

The aim is to move all disks from one hole to another, observing the following rules:

  • Always move just one disk at a time.
  • Never put a smaller disk on top of a bigger one.
Experts need 31 moves only.

Hint: If you simply never put disks of the same color together, then the whole procedure works almost automatically.
