Contest Brief

The desired ipad app is a chess-puzzle of demonstration purpose only. Please see the demo. I am an illusionist and the app is only used on my ipad in order to let the audience see the knight's tour on a screen.


1.) The chessboard should be numbered from 1 to 64.
2.) Only those fields can be clicked that represent a legal knight'smove. (Please see basic chess rules, if you don't know it).- A click on a correct field creates a confirming sound, a click on an incorrect field triggers a buzzer sound.
3.) Forward and backwards buttons allow to undo and redo the last moves
4.) Whenever a correct field is clicked, it disappears and reveals another piece of the background picture.
5.) As soon as the first field is clicked, a digital countdown starts running down in the background picture. The idea of the countdown is to be in the background like a wallpaper and as big as the screen. Naturally, the more fields are clicked, the more the countdown will be recognizable as such. The countdown should only have 3 digits (like 3:00) and only show minutes and seconds.
6.) This countdown must be modifiable
7.) After the countdown is down to 0:00, a pop-up should ask: "Continue?". When clicked "ok" the countdown should go up again. (0:01, 0:02, 0:03, etc.)
8.) Reset button resets whole chessboard and countdown
9.) With the first click on a field, a sound clip (will be provided separately) should start automatically at the right moment, so that it always ends at 0:00.
10.) the history of clicked fields should be in a bar on top.
11.) Here is a real sequence to test: 9-3-13-7-24-39-56-62-52-58-41-26-20-30-45-35-50-60-54-64-47-37-43-33-18-1-11-5-15-32-22-28-34-49-59-53-63-48-38-44-27-17-2-12-6-16-31-21-4-10-25-19-29-14-8-23-40-46-36-42-57-51-61-55
12.) The board should look elegant. A little 3 D touch in general would be good as well.
13.)How does the tour end successfully?: When the second-last (!) field is clicked, the countdown should stop at whatever time it is at that moment. Only one field is left (it will always be one in a corner). If this last field is clicked, the countdown should disappear and a rotating 3-D horse (knight) should appear, covering the whole chessboard.

    Hi, LuccaLucian. I'm trying to open your "Design Knight\'s Tour.png" attached file, but its link seems not to be ok. Could you please upload it again, perhaps with alternative name? Is it a logo image for the puzzle or for mouse pointing? Thanks in advance, Alice.

      This is just for demonstration purposes. I am trying to end the tour as fast as possible and the audience should be able to see the progress. The screen is projected.
