Pagoda

Tower of Hanoi Wooden Brain Teaser Puzzle

Sometimes referred to as Tower of Hanoi (also called the Tower of Brahma). Starting with all the discs largest to smallest positioned on the centre peg, build a pagoda on an alternate peg by transferring the discs one at a time.

You are allowed to use all 3 pegs but can not place a larger piece on top of a smaller piece. The fewer number of disc transfers it takes the better mathematical wizard you become!
