Hello Codeforces!

Together with some of my friends, we have created a new mathematical puzzle game called Brick Game!

What is Brick Game?

Brick Game is an interactive logic game built around numerical pyramids and algebraic relationships:

  • Pyramid Mechanics: For any two adjacent cells $$$A$$$ and $$$B$$$, their sum equals the cell $$$C$$$ that touches both of them in the adjacent row:
  • The relationship $$$A + B = C$$$ holds true whether $$$C$$$ sits in the row above $$$A$$$ and $$$B$$$, or in the row below them.
  • Mathematical Constraints: Use logical deduction and basic arithmetic properties to fill in missing cells and solve systems of equations across the grid.

Features

  • Singleplayer & Multiplayer: Challenge real players in real-time or test your skills against 5 different bot difficulty levels.
  • Rating System: Includes an Elo-based rating system (similar to Codeforces and Chess) so you can track your competitive progression.
  • Brain Warm-up: Fast-paced and competitive—perfect for warming up before a Codeforces round!

Can someone prove NP hardness? Or is there a polynomial time algorithm that solves it?
