Many other games have unique starting conditions so that each game is different. Chess has so many possibilities that most strategies have viable counters (though there is a growing concern that chess could one day be “solved” by computers, like how Checkers has been solved).

Once discovered, the game becomes stale since there are no other comparable strategies left- and no choices being made. If the game does not contain a lot of luck, then there is the risk of a dominant strategy emerging. If the game contains a lot of luck, then people might feel like their choices are not meaningful. One of the challenges with game design is making a game that people want to play multiple times (replayability). On the other hand, some games can be difficult due to unpreventable randomness or a huge time investment in the form of “grinding,” both of which interfere with the creation of interesting and meaningful choices. This helps explain why people complain when the newer generations of Pokemon games are too easy. This also means that a good game should be difficult- if you win no matter what you do, then your choices are insignificant. We then feel satisfied when the choices we make result in winning the game.

Games are fun because of the choices we get to make while playing them (if there are no choices, it is a movie and not a video game). What is so good about Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup? They borrow elements from tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons, yet utilize the power of a computer to procedurally generate levels and keep track of the various things a human dungeon master would. Roguelikes are a genre of video games where you play as an adventurer exploring a dungeon. The first thing you see when you start the game What is a Roguelike? Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup (DCSS) is the greatest Roguelike of all time.
