Maxit is a mathematical puzzle game written by Harry Saal and published by CodeWorks - Cursor for the Commodore PET in the late 1970s or early 1980s. The game involves a grid of numbers, and players take turns selecting numbers from the grid to add to their score. The objective is to maximize one's score while minimizing the opponent's opportunities. The game is turn-based, and players must strategically choose numbers to block their opponent while optimizing their own total.
Harry Saal was a notable programmer during the early days of personal computing, and CodeWorks - Cursor was a software company that produced games and utilities for the Commodore PET.
