About the Game

Markov Alg (short for "Markov Algorithm") is a retro-style puzzle game where you navigate game fields filled with code and instructions, and transform strings of symbols to finally get to your goal.

As the game begins, you play each level as an "X" symbol, with the goal of reaching the "+" symbol... Then the game evolves, and gets even harder.

  • 64 levels of game play
  • Apply instructions to the instructions themselves
  • Copy and delete any symbol on field (even "X"!)
  • Re-write the rules, and change the game!
