Cracking The Conspiracy Hints

How can I win the Strategic Simulation?

  • 1 of 7: You are blue.  The purple gem is your opponent.  Any block that touches an occupied square can be played.  If that block is already occupied by your opponent, you can still click there so his markers are consumed by yours (and visa versa).
  • 2 of 7: Assign letters and numbers to the grid to understand the moves.  Going across, label the columns A through E.  Number the rows going down 1 through 5.  At the start, your marker sits in block A5 and your opponent's marker sits in block E1.
  • 3 of 7: Click on block B4 and then C4.
  • 4 of 7: Click on C4 again and then D3.
  • 5 of 7: Your last move will complete the simulation (you will win).
  • 6 of 7: Click on block D2.
  • 7 of 7: If you prefer, here is a Strategic Simulator Solution.
