Heirarchy

🎮 Hierarchy—Game Summary

Objective:

Place numbered, colored tiles on a 4x4 grid so that one row matches a 4-number goal by the time the board is full.

🔹 Gameplay Mechanics:

• You are shown 4 random tiles (number + color).
• When a tile is placed, it’s replaced with a new random tile.
• Tiles can be placed only if:
  • They’re adjacent to a tile with the same number or color.
• Once placed, tiles can be moved freely as long as:
  • The entire board remains in ascending order left-to-right (row-wise) and top-to-bottom (column-wise).

🎯 Win Condition:

• At the end of the game (all 16 tiles placed), at least one row must match the goal sequence exactly (in both number and order).

💀 Lose Condition:

• If no legal moves remain (none of the 4 current tiles can be placed), the game ends.
• You also lose if, after filling the board, no row matches the goal.

✅ Guarantee:

• The goal is always reachable at the start, but the player can play into a dead-end by making poor placements.
