Smoggle

Smoggle is a tiny and fast program able to solve multilingual and multidimensional Boggle grid games. This cross-platform software is written in C++ with libxml2, under LGPL license. For this moment, it supports both english and french languages but extension to other languages is relatively straightforward. Smoggle can either solve grids given on standard input or generate it randomly according to some predefined statistics w.r.t to the chosen language. Below there is an example of output for solving a 2D random grid game. The program was run on a Athlon Dual Core 6000+:

As we can see, the resolution only takes few seconds and this solver can easily be embedded into more sophisticated programs. Additionnally, the resolution of the grid is now parallelized on several processors using OpenMP.

• 18/12/2011 - Release 1.4.0 Smoggle now supports OpenMP. The resolution of grid games is therefore improved with a near-linear speed-up.
• 24/04/2010 - New logo : Smoggle has now a nice logo. Special thanks to Nosco for his work!
• 20/04/2010 - Release 1.3.0 : adding of a cheat mode for solving real grid games.
• 28/02/2009 - Release 1.2.0 : beta version of Smoggle, adding of periodic borders.
