PROJECT


Build a Fun and Interactive Puzzle Game in Java

In this project, we’ll build a Java-based puzzle game that generates word and math puzzles and connects them to a simple web interface.

Build a Fun and Interactive Puzzle Game in Java

You will learn to:

Work with Java classes, methods, and project structure.

Read and process data from external files.

Apply randomness, string handling, and pattern logic to generate dynamic outputs.

Connect the backend Java logic to a simple browser-based interface.

Project Description

In this project, we’ll develop a small, interactive system that integrates Java logic with a lightweight browser interface. We’ll start by creating the core game engine in Java, loading data from text files, and then applying simple algorithms to generate different types of puzzles. We’ll then explore how this logic can be connected to a minimal frontend through an embedded web server that displays the puzzles in a clean interface.

Throughout the project, we’ll work directly with Java classes, file I/O, randomness, pattern generation, and basic HTTP handling. By the end, we’ll have a workflow that runs backend logic, exposes it through a server, and renders the output in a browser.
