I love board and strategy games, and I'm most interested in the math underneath them: probability, game trees, information theory, and the gap between the move that feels right and the move that's mathematically best.
Each game here is playable in your browser and comes with a solver you can ask for hints, plus a guide to the strategy behind it.
