Games are seen only for recreation. However, this book shows that games can be used to strengthen problem-solving skills and beyond. This book presents strategy games and discusses for each one solutions towards a winning position in the game. In most cases, these strategies are analogous to problem-solving strategies in mathematics. Readers are also exposed to a wide variety of games from several different cultures, which will broaden the perspective of the readers. Readership: Students and general public interested in mathematics in strategy games and problem solving Content: An introduction to strategy games -- Tic-tac-toe games -- Blocking games -- Games requiring an ongoing change of strategies -- Miscellaneous strategy games -- Suggestions and strategies for selected games -- Game boards for various strategy games.
