What is the Wumpus game?

The Wumpus game is a game that uses problem-solving and decision making to find the gold and make it back to the start. Along the way, you may encounter a pit you could fall into or the Wumpus, both of which would end your game. Sometimes you may receive a specific hint if you are in an adjacent space to an obstacle or the gold. In this project, we attempt to create an A.I. agent that can solve all Wumpus games.
