I finally got 63 which is a perfect score, but my usual score is 64-67.

Just click on the square to which you want to move it.

To fill the board (pink) with only touching each square once takes exactly 63 moves.

Yes, obviously, if you are to touch each square exactly once. The board has 8x8 squares.

Well, yeah, my bad.... just click a square to move your player and it turns pink to show where you've already been.

I got 65, then there was only one left. When I stepped on it, my score was already 91...

i cant find the pattern of movement here, i always find a problem to fill the corners before approaching the middle area..can any one supply a general rule or helpful counting tricks ?

I did it in 74 moves...

My first scores were 74, 73, and then I started to score 67 and 66....

Then it took me a day to get to 65 and 64.....


and then another day to get 63..... which I only got once so I had to brag about it.


I haven't played it since I got the 63, I remember my pastern that I usually use to get below 67/66 (my average score), but I did a different variation that I can't remember to get the perfect score.


My only hint is that I circle the board once, then I circle it and fill it in a pattern again, and then I do one full corner and then bounce out of it and around in a circle again like a tornado, trying to leave myself a section that is easy to get to and can be linked in the last 3 moves.

80.

One of the ways I can tell I'm not a genius is that despite my technical background, I've never enjoyed puzzle games.

Logic fail. 133 moves. Well, to be fair, it took me about 30 to find out what moves the knight could actually do, and I don't play chess.
