It's a strategy game, so I thought it should be mentioned, if it's not to your taste, then it's not to your taste.
It's a very valid suggestion.

The guy who taught me go is very good at it. He's the one who told me you need to think many turns ahead - more so than chess. I like games I'm moderately good at. I really am awfully bad at go.
