The game allows only one side's plan to succeed, although a player may change plans during the game. There are two different ways of winning the game (see below). Certain strategies and tactics, however, allow both sides the chance of securing a better idea of the other's plan as the game progresses.
Vonnegut, a veteran of World War II, hoped that the game would capture the intricacy of military strategy. In a letter to a potential publisher, he wrote that the game “is similar in mood to chess, and it is played on a standard checkerboard.

However, some Cournot strategy profiles are sustained as Nash equilibria but can be eliminated as incredible threats (as described above) by applying the solution concept of subgame perfection. Indeed, it is the very thing that makes a Cournot strategy profile a Nash equilibrium in a Stackelberg game that prevents it from being subgame perfect.
The Infinite Game is a 2019 book by Simon Sinek, applying ideas from James P. Carse's similarly titled book, Finite and Infinite Games to topics of business and leadership. [ 1 ] The book is based on Carse's distinction between two types of games: finite games and infinite games.
The two pure strategy Nash equilibria are unfair; one player consistently does better than the other. The mixed strategy Nash equilibrium is inefficient: the players will miscoordinate with probability 13/25, leaving each player with an expected return of 6/5 (less than the payoff of 2 from each's less favored pure strategy equilibrium).
Hex is a finite, 2-player perfect information game, and an abstract strategy game that belongs to the general category of connection games.
