Meh. I've played it a few times years ago.

In any case, everyone knows that Teeko is really the world's greatest strategy game.

Hmmm...

Teeko

A game described by Scarne which is played on a board by two players who alternate placing, one at a time, their four counters each, after which the counters are moved around (including diagonally). Four counters in a row or square wins (Beeler et al. 1972). In general, there are sixteen forms of the game, all of which were solved completely by Guy Steele in 1998 with the following results: standard teeko (44 winning configurations) is a draw, and advanced teeko (58 winning configurations) is a first-player win.
