Mr Bit
The ancient game of Nine Men's Morris, rebuilt for a quick, thinking match against a computer that actually plays to win. Place your nine men, line up three in a row to form a mill, and pick off the enemy one man at a time. Grind the computer down to two men - or leave it with nowhere to move - and the board is yours.

TWO PHASES, ONE BOARD
First you both place your nine men, one at a time, onto the 24 points of the classic three-square board. Then the real fight begins: slide your men along the lines to open and close mills. Every mill you form lets you capture an enemy man, so a single well-timed line can swing the whole game.

A COMPUTER THAT THINKS AHEAD
The AI runs a real minimax search with alpha-beta pruning, weighing mills, mobility, material and the threats you are building. It looks deeper and plays sharper as you climb the ten difficulty tiers - from a gentle First Mill opener up to a merciless Grandmaster. Only legal moves, no cheating, just a stronger opponent every level.

LEARN THE MILL RULE
Tap a point to drop a man, tap one of your men to slide it, and tap an enemy man to remove it when you close a mill. You cannot take a man that sits inside a mill unless every enemy man is protected - the same rule tournaments have used for centuries.

STARS, COINS AND A SHOP
Win each match losing as few men as possible and inside the par time for up to three stars, and earn coins on every victory. Spend them in the shop and claim a small free gift. Everything is earned in-game - no pay-to-win.

CARVED-BOARD LOOK
Deep emerald board wood, warm amber and teal men, and a calm, unhurried pace - a few sharp minutes of classic strategy whenever you want them.
