Cannibals & Missionaries

In Cannibals & Missionaries, a very unusual group has come to a river, and now nobody can agree on how to cross. There is only one small boat, and it can carry at most two people at a time. The real problem is that if cannibals outnumber missionaries on any bank, they cannot be left like that, or the cannibals will eat the missionaries. So the crossing turns into a logic puzzle game where you must keep track of who is on each shore and where the boat is at any moment.

How to play?

To put someone in the boat, just click on that character, and they will climb in. You can place one or two people in the boat, then send it to the other side with the move button. When the boat reaches the opposite shore, choose who gets out, because someone will usually need to go back for the rest.

Watch every combination on each shore carefully, so there is never a situation where cannibals outnumber missionaries. If that happens, a missionary gets eaten, and the game ends. You can make as many trips as you need until you manage to move everyone to the same side without putting anyone in danger along the way. If you do not rush and pay attention to who is standing where, you can solve the puzzle, even if it does not work out right away.
