The Hamsters of Nim
Arrghh! The Hamsters are out of control...
The age of computers outwitting humans started with Nim. We've put together our own version of Nim: hamster Nim. Can you beat the computer and collect the last hamster?
See our instructions if you aren't sure how to play Nim. The main menu / start screen allows you to pick different variations of the game and whether you want to play the computer or not. When it is your turn, just click on a hamster to catch it and all those to the right. Play will then pass to the opponent.
Hamster Nim only works with some web browsers. If it does not load properly for you, either try a different browser or download this version you can run directly on your own computer.
