Strategy classics against the computer or a friend

Board games have been sharpening minds for centuries. Test your openings in Chess, force multi-jumps in Checkers, build a line of four in Connect Four, flip the board in Reversi, hunt hidden ships in Sea Battle or claim squares in Dots & Boxes. Each game has several difficulty levels, and most also offer a two-player mode on one screen.

Getting more from every match

  • Control the centre. In chess, Connect Four and Reversi the middle of the board gives you the most options.
  • Think about your opponent's reply. Before each move, ask what the best answer to it would be.
  • Raise the level slowly. Beat the computer twice in a row before moving to the next difficulty.
