Created attachment 286564 [details] [review] computer-player: on level one, try to lose After fixing some AI bugs, it's now just too hard to win. This AI seems to be easy enough. We could probably make it easier by inverting the BEST heuristic instead of the PERFECT heuristic, but that seems unnecessary.
I quite don’t like this approach: it will be visible that the computer tries to lose, that’s not game-y… and well, the “tile difference” approach is not a good strategy at reversi either way. I would really prefer a didactic approach that teach you good moves than that.
