Taxman

A game to practice the divisors of numbers

The rules are simple:

  • When you take a number, the taxman gets all the remaining factors.
  • You are only allowed moves that give the taxman at least one new number.
  • When you can't move any more, the taxman gets the rest.

Give it a try yourself! Beat Taxman and show your mathematical skills!

PS: There are strategies, background theory, optimal paths until N=519, and many more details about this game in JCrypTool, if you want to step up your game a little ;)
