Paradigm overview
Tower Planning measures multi-step planning with original tower puzzles. Participants choose efficient legal move plans, and scoring reports solved puzzles, excess moves, planning time, and rule violations.
Key scoring outputs
Total Solved
countNumber of puzzles solved with the minimum legal plan.
Higher is better
Excess Moves
countSelected moves above the minimum move count.
Lower is better
Planning Time
msMean response time for planning choices.
