Rearrange the Nine Grids (重排九宮) |
The sliding puzzle is roughly divided into two major types: those that use identical shapes and those that use non-identical shapes. The former features pieces in the same shape and size, while the latter is formed with pieces in different shapes and sizes. The game known as Rearrange the Nine Grids is an identically-shaped sliding puzzle. This game challenges a player to rearrange the nine grids. The game has a long history which dates back to the Han Dynasty and was based on a mathematical game called “crisscross chart” or “magic square.”
