Abstract | m x n Closing Octagons (CO) game is a combinatorial game for two players. The game starts with an m x n array ofoctagons such that every two adjacent octagons has one common side and 0 points. Players alternately turn by the followingrules. (i) A player moves by coloring one side of an octagon. (ii) A player who colors the eighth side of k octagons earns k pointsand gets one more move. The game ends when every side of the octagons has been colored and the player with the most pointswins. This game is formulated into a new CO game using graphs. In order to analyze it, more rules are added and the game withthese additional rules is called a normal m x n CO game. In this article, we give a greedy strategy for some normal m x n COgames and a winning strategy for normal 1 x n and 2 x n CO games. |
