Project Overview
How To Play
Quoridor is a board game played with two or four players. The point of the game is to be the first to get your pawn to the opposite end of the board. On your turn you can either move your piece or place a barrier. When placing a barrier, you must leave at least one path from each pawn to their destination. With two players, each gets 10 barriers they can place.
There is a good amount of replay-ability with this game with multiple strategies that can be used. For instance, barriers can be used to force you opponent to take longer paths or to prevent them from blocking your path.
The Project
The idea is to make a video game version of this so you can play with others online. This would require a server client architecture. The game logic for this should be strait forward and easy to implement. The style can be as simple or detailed as needed, and the networking could also be dropped depending on development time.
