Campaign Mode

Challenge yourself by beating the computer on three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard. Your performance is scored based on efficiency!

Scoring System

Base Score: 1000 points

Your campaign score starts at 1000 points and is reduced by penalties:

Each move: -10 points
Each capture: -20 points
Each draw: -30 points
Each retry: -50 points

Hardest Mode Bonus: +500 points

After beating Hard mode, you can challenge the Hardest difficulty. Completing Hardest mode adds a massive +500 bonus points to your final score!

Example: If you complete all levels with 50 moves, 5 captures, 0 draws, and 1 retry, your score would be: 1000 - (50×10) - (5×20) - (0×30) - (1×50) = 300 points. Add +500 for Hardest mode = 800 points!

Play efficiently and minimize retries to maximize your score and climb the leaderboard!
