I think so also, Chess, perennially popular game of skill between two players, involving intense intellectual competition, with almost no element of chance.

The object of the game, which symbolizes warfare, is to capture—that is, “checkmate”—the opposing king. The defeated king is never removed from the board, however, as are the other pieces and pawns when they are captured. The basic rules and principles of chess are easily mastered, but the subtleties of advanced play require intensive study and concentration. Because of this characteristic, chess is one of the few games that everyone can enjoy; weak or inexperienced players will gain as many thrills and pleasures in games with opponents of their approximate strength as will two master tournament competitors.

Over the centuries chess pieces have been made in many forms, representational and abstract, and in a wide variety of materials. Wood or stone, ivory or bone, silver, gold, and bronze, alabaster, crystal, and china have all been worked by master artisans to produce sets of incomparable beauty and value. Modern chess, however, is primarily played with pieces of wood or plastic in the classic design known as the Staunton pattern, which was devised in the 19th century in Great Britain. So popular is chess that small portable sets are manufactured for convenient play when travelling; by the late 1970s technological advances made it possible for more and more players to pit their skills against sophisticated electronic computer games that simulate master play. The 1990s saw the growth of chess played across the Internet.

This game, which has tantalized and enchanted many of the best minds of the world for almost 14 centuries, originated in the Indus Valley in India in the 6th century ad. Originally known as Chaturanga (the “army game”), it spread rapidly along the routes of commerce and conquest, first to Persia, then to the Byzantine Empire, then throughout the rest of Asia.

Chess Best Strategy

I think "Junta" by West End Games is the best strategy game ever devised, but it depends on your criteria.

Chess is beautiful, because you have a very simple game where the rules are widely known across the globe. The problem is that there is a lot of silent "thinking time".

Junta, on the other hand, is a multiplayer game where everybody is engaged every second. It is really much fun.

I agree. But the best strategy video game is the original Tetris or Battle Chess!

I prefer Go-no software yet written can beat a really good human go player. Daishogi is the most diabolical strategy game ever invented, in fact it's so complicated almost no one knows how to play it. There's something to be said for duplicate bridge, as well.

OK the first guys a moron cuz u cant agree with a question. the second guy applies principals from shess. the answer is NO, it is not. for example it is 2 dimensional and turn based. a truly ingenious strategy game is multi-cross-trans-dimensional and runs in real time or faster.

I don't think so.
try the games from the GIPF project, they are very good strategy games, and very original. You'll have to think differently to win.
