Read full description

Last Take is a two-player strategy game based on Nim – one of the oldest mathematical games in history.

But beneath the simplicity lies deep, beautiful mathematics. PLAY YOUR WAY Challenge the Engine at four (with Advanced, five) difficulty levels, take on a local opponent, or match up against players worldwide through Game Center. TWO RULE SETS Normal – the player who takes the last stone wins. Misère – the player forced to take the last stone loses. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Your win rate, broken down by board size and engine level, is always a tap away. The more you play, the more you understand the game.
