| Chess is a strategy game that combines many different flavors of the mind. These include aspects of mental endurance, creativity and instinct in my experience. The game never gets dull, that is if you can stand in front of a board for several hours. You are constantly bombarded with many different opinions about the various stages of the game including the opening, middle, and end games. All intriguing and all must be developed for a player to reach grandmaster status. |
