I Simulated 38,612 Countryle Games to Find the Best Strategy
- st0ffregen 6mo agoI reverse-engineered Countryle and simulated 38,612 games to find the best strategy. Using entropy and geographic data, I discovered the best starting country and built a bot that solves the game in 2.85 guesses on average.
- MyHonestOpinon 6mo agoNice work! What is the max amount of guesses?
- st0ffregen 6mo agoThanks! starting from any country the maximum is five guesses but if you pick a high entropy starting country it's 4.
