BCSkip is an implementation of the famous peg jumping game. It's a board game for one person, where the goal is to eliminate as many pegs as possible by skipping pegs.
This implementation lets you...
undo (and redo) game moves,
select the initially empty peg,
export the played moves as a Palm Memo (great for game analysis), and
turn on the 'show' mode, which marks the pegs that are available for skipping (as a helpful hint for kids, inexperienced players etc.).
The 'Solve' feature, which you can use when there are about 10 pegs or less remaining, tells you what the optimal solution is from there (i.e., how many pegs will still be remaining, even in the best case), and if you want, you can replay that solution.
NOTE: in the trial version, which you can download here for free, you can play only 15 game moves, and the 'Solve' feature isn't available.
