C++ program to create puzzle game

YASH PAL, 31 July 202418 February 2026

In this post, we will write a C++ program to create a puzzle game. In this game we need to press the right arrow to move the next box in the same row, press the left arrow to move the previous box in the same row, press up arrow to move next box in the same column and press down arrow to move the previous box in the same column. To exist in the game we need to press the E button. 

To win the game we need to sort the hexadecimal number in ascending order.
