Dicing with Destiny
In the first episode, Benjamin Wooley talks about how games are instinctive as human beings.
He starts it by showing an ancient board game found in colchester called "Stunway Game". The game underlined the point above that humans play without thinking they are playing and that socialising is a massive part of playing games.
He then talks about Chess and how it is classed as a war game. There are no hindering elements to the player apart from the opponent sitting across the table. It is a tactically beautiful game that allows players to test their skill and knowledge purely just against the opponent.
