%C A338290 Both knights start on square 1, white moves to the lowest unvisited square (10), black then moves to the lowest unvisited square (12) and so on...
%C A338290 This sequence is finite, on the 3758th move or the black knight's 1879th step, square 4242 is visited, after which white wins and the game is over.
%C A338290 The sequences generated by 4 knights and 8 knights also produce new sequences not yet in the OEIS.
