Finval's magic game

Recommended Posts

Would anyone care to speculate on the style of game play and the nature of Finval's Magic Game called "God's Eyes and Fingers" ?

We know that the game is played in sets of five, with the winner being whoever wins three games but nothing more i can find on it.

Okay, have you thought that Greg is likely to have based this on something he's seen before and changed the name. And searched for 2 player asymmetric ancient board games? Maybe Central American.

Why asymmetric? Maybe I missed something in the article that you linked, but I didn't notice anything asymmetrical (I'm sure I must have missed something).

Could be something as simple as draughts/checkers?
