>>5546924All that is left is to send Zorc back to the shadow realm. But of course, the hero has to decide on an approach.
Zorc, knowing that the Hero is a valiant vigilante following the light and spreading justice, surely expects him to enter from the front of the castle. Thus, the Hero should enter from the back.
However, Zorc knows that the Hero also possesses a cunning intellect and would never attack from the front, thus he has actually trapped the back.
Thus, the Hero must attack from the front.
And yet! Zorc no doubt can deduce all that in an instant and knows the Hero is preparing a double fake-out, so he has trapped the front of the castle.
Thus, the Hero has no choice, but to attack from the back.
Of course, we are not yet even far from being done. This is after all the battle of wits for the future of the entire world. Regular logic will only lead us to an infinite loop, we have to apply the mathematics of infinities and strategic thinking to get out of this one. After carrying out infinitely many calculations in a finite amount of time the Hero discovers the hole in Zorc's strategic reasoning, a mistake that he made all the way before the game even began. Zorc has challenged someone who knows a man that once kissed an Italian on the lips! And you never challenge an Italian('s lover's acquaintance) when death is on the line!
The Hero will go left 5 times to the edge of the board and then up 3 times, entering Zorc's castle from the back.
