Strategy Games

Strategy Games is a collection of four different games initially released by IBM in 1983. The game includes four different turn-based strategy games for one or two players. The games featured are the following:

1. Checkers for Beginners:
   A simple version of the popular board game checkers designed to help players learn the rules of the game and practice their skills. Allows for one player to play against the computer.
2. Elusion:
   Elusion is a game designed for the IBM PC for one player against the computer or two players. The game features a board made up of either 25 or 36 squares and the player's goal is to be the last one to make a move on the board. Each spot on the board can only be taken up once; on each turn players can move their marker one open space in any direction to take that space. The game ends when a player is unable to move to any more spaces.
3. Battleship:
   A computerized version of the popular strategy game, Battleship allows two players or one player against the computer to compete. Players each first hide a series of ships of varying sizes on the game board; after ships are hidden, players take turns attempting to locate and sink their opponents ships.
4. Reversi:
   Reversi, also known as Othello, is a board game where players attempt to occupy the most squares on the game board with their color pieces. On each turn, players place a new game piece on the board; any opponent pieces located between the new piece and another of the players pieces is captured. The game ends when the board is filled or no more moves are possible.
