About Finite State Automaton Challenges 2

Welcome to Finite State Automaton Challenges 2. It is the second episode of Finite State Automation Challenges. In this game, you will play with the simplest automaton model, Finite State Automaton, and use it to cope with 80 challenges from variants of the previous episode, character string manipulation, computer science, and mathematics.

If you are unfamiliar with Finite State Automaton, we highly recommend playing our first game (Finite State Automation Challenges) or learning it online in advance.

The criterion for judging whether it is suitable to play this game is whether you can answer the following question:The above picture shows a finite-state automaton. The first state with two colors denotes that it is both a beginning and accepting state. So, what is the pattern of strings accepted by this automaton?

Two Major Updates


We're making the game even more challenging and fun by introducing two major updates:
  • A state can be both beginning and accepting.
  • Some challenges require you to create a deterministic automaton (thanks for the suggestions from players), which means:
  • There is at most one begin state.
  • Empty edges are not allowed, i.e., each edge must contain at least one character.
  • For a character, a state can transit to at most one state, i.e., no conflict edges.
Besides, we add red spots to denote each challenge's difficulty so that you can take your own route through the challenges.

Recommended Dec 22, 2023
Episode 2 becomes even more interesting and challenging with the addition of DFA-type levels. I managed to complete all the levels in about 2-3 hours. I recommend it because I'm passionate about finite automata and would love to see this game continue evolving. However, I must admit that it has some weaknesses in interface design. The grid-like layout feels a bit rough, especially when dealing with complex connections, and the inability to move nodes is a major drawback. At the very least, it should allow players to restart with a single click, but instead, I have to delete nodes one by one, which can be tedious. I do hope to see this game gradually expand into chapters such as PDA and Turing Machine, but I also hope that the interface will undergo improvement along the way.

The devs have expanded on what they have created with the first game. Haven't finished the game yet, but have skimmed through the challenges. They look more interesting and challenging than the ones in the first installment. This offers a great hands on approach to learn about finite state automata.

Finite State Automaton Challenges 2 is a focused logic and programming puzzle game that transforms the principles of finite-state machines into a collection of interactive challenges. Developed and published by Tramolly Game, it is clearly designed for players who enjoy computer science, mathematics, programming concepts, and abstract problem solving. Rather than surrounding its ideas with a story or elaborate progression system, the game concentrates almost entirely on constructing automata that satisfy specific conditions. This makes it unusually specialized, but also gives it a strong identity among educational puzzle games. Each challenge essentially presents a problem that must be translated into a functioning arrangement of states and transitions. Players determine how different inputs should move through their automaton and which states should accept the required results. It creates a satisfying cycle of reading a problem, forming a logical solution, testing the design, discovering weaknesses, and adjusting the structure until every relevant condition is handled correctly. Successful solutions feel earned because progress depends primarily on understanding the logic rather …
