Tips

1- You may move the upper disk to the last stack (right) if the number of disks is odd, and to the middle stack if the number of disks is even.

2- The radius and height of the disks depend on the width and height of the window. This means you can change the radius and height of the disks by changing the width and height of the window. When you mean the disks are small enlarge the window size to enlage them or vice versa.

3- Try first to solve a 3-disks game before you try another games.
