Solboard also known as Peg Solitaire is an addictive mind game, a puzzle, a brain teaser, invented in the 17th Century. The game appears to be deceptively simple, but it is not.
The standard game fills the entire board with pegs except for the central hole. The objective is, making valid moves, to empty the entire board except for a solitary peg in the central hole.
It appears simple, but it is not. You will put your brain to test!
According to the legend, Solitaire was invented by a French aristocrat in the 17th Century, when incarcerated in the Bastille, explaining the games less common name Solo Noble, but no evidence was ever found to support this story. The first evidence of the game can be traced back to the court of Louis XIV, and the specific date of 1697. Several works of art from that time show peg solitaire boards, demonstrating that the game was highly fashionable.
This game is known simply as Solitaire in the United Kingdom.
