About Strategy games
Strategy games reward planning over reflexes. You win by reading the position, thinking a few moves ahead and spotting your opponent's plan before it works.
The category starts with chess, playable in your browser with no download, and will grow as new strategy titles are added.

- Chess — Plan several moves ahead in a turn-based board game.
Tips
- Take your time: in turn-based games there's no reward for moving quickly.
- After a loss, go back to the moment the game turned and look for a better move.
What should I practice first in a strategy game?
Learn the legal moves and the win condition before chasing speed. In chess, look at your opponent’s threats before making your own move. Puzzle games offer another way to practice planning and spotting patterns.
