chess is the most reliable game
Sort:
Think about it. most games die off eventually but chess has been around forever and people continue to enjoy it. I don’t have to worry about the site dying off so i can put time into the game without it adding up
phrased that last bit weirdly but you get the idea
If that's what you mean by "reliable", then chess isn't that reliable -- it is a no-so-fun game to play against oneself.
Interestingly Bobby Fischer believed that chess is dying because people are going to figure it out completely because of extensive studies of theory. But now that we have computer analysis and the means to figure it out, still no forced win has been found yet. Which means that the game of chess is so balanced it might never be broken.
