Knight Move

Knight Move (ナイト・ムーブ) is a puzzle-platform game designed by Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov and developed by JV Dialog. Based on the knight's tour sequence in chess, the game has the player take control of a single knight piece that constantly moves in its characteristic L-shaped pattern on a tiled board. The objective of each round is to collect hearts on the board while avoiding holes that are left when the knight lands each tile a set number of times. JV Dialog, a joint American-Soviet consortium founded in 1987, purchased Knight Move from Pajitnov that same year. The game was published by Nintendo for the Famicom Disk System exclusively in Japan in 1990.
