In 2025 the game for the contest is Box. We have placed a description of the rules online. You can always watch a sample game being played. CompetitionAfter you login in to the CodeCup system you can submit your program. You can find the submission section under "My submissions". Your submission will be tested automatically against our sample players to ensure that it follows the rules. After passing this check your program is ready to compete! Note that your program must be capable of playing both as player 1 and player 2. We will hold test competitions every three weeks starting in September.
