I must be one of the dumb ones, because I wasn’t really sure what “UP” and “DOWN” meant on a full stack. Was it just “DOWN” to move something to a stack? Or is it meant to be up to indicate where from and down to indicate where too?

Or was it in fact something even simpler than that? I suspect it was … oh well, lousy world anyway :P

Hmm, I should clarify that in-game. On the first level, there are 4 settings to get through:

1up 2up

1up 2down

1down 2up

2down 2up

Then on the next level,

1up 2up 3up

1up 2up 3down

1up 2down 3up

1up 2down 3down

1down 2up 3up

1down 2up 3down

1down 2down 3up

1down 2down 3down

So the object is to go through them all without hitting one twice. Flipping any switch changes it from down to up, or back. Hope this helps & sorry for the confusion!

I’m … more confused than I was before.

I thought I was playing towers of hanoi, but it sounds more like the idea is just to enter all the possible switch configurations?

Yes, without repeating! The Towers of Hanoi game is a clue.

I worked out the solution for level 2 on paper, and then eventually I worked out what to do with that to help me with level 3.
