30.45 Like Sam Lloyd's 14/15 puzzle. We have developed a program in Excel that produces a random 5x5 grid as the provided 4x4 is too easy. This now means that we can have 6 people play together with the program. 19.9 A variant on Nim's game. Excellent for encouraging thinking and strategy and possibly not too difficult for the more able to program. 20.58
