## Description

_IQ Game_ is a simple strategy game that aims to improve the player’s IQ. It
is played on a field filled with blocks of different colours in random
patterns. The player and the computer-controlled opponent alternately pick a
block with a certain colour, adjacent to its own position. When the player
selects one, that block and all other blocks of the same colour, adjacent to
any of the player’s blocks, become taken.

The trick is into thinking forward and choosing blocks that will expand the
reach as quickly as possible. However, the same colour can never be picked in
succession (if the opponent chose it first for example), widening the
strategical options. The computer’s AI supports two algorithms: Pinky, a well-
known greedy algorithm with 50% probability of error, and Brain, like Pinky
but no errors in greedy, plus it tries to block player’s best move. The player
with the largest reach wins the game.
