Play the game chomp, a game widely known in mathematical game theory, on Scratch! The mathematics of the game are in the credits, and the instructions are below. ***Instructions*** The game is two-player - Each player takes turns clicking tiles. When you click a tile, you bite off that tile, as well as every tile to its right and top. When the poison tile is the only one left, whoever would've eaten, it is the loser, and the other player is the winner
(Obligatory ask for subs I mean followers) https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/222662897/ - A Neural Network ****Mathematics of Chomp**** In Game Theory, it has been proven that in any game of chomp when both players are playing the best they can, the player who goes first (player one) will always win. Because it is impossible to draw, any game can play out like this; player 1 makes a move. If this is the start of a winning strategy, then you are done. Additionally, if Player 2 can counter this move in the start of a winning strategy for player 2, then player 1 could've made that move in the first place and therefore had the winning strategy. As such, player 1 would always win. The interesting part is that while we know there must be a winning strategy, we do not for all cases know what that strategy is for a board of chocolates that is n by n for all n. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chomp#Winning_the_game for more information ***Updates*** Version 1.2 - January 24, 2020 - Improved poison square graphics - Added sounds to when you eat squares Version 1.1 - February 28, 2019 - graphics overhaul - bug fixes - animations for chocolate
