Abstract

In this work we introduce the perfect information 2-player game Dominect, which has recently been invented by two of the authors. Despite being a game with quite simple rules, Dominect reveals a high depth of complexity. We report on first results concerning the development of winning strategies, as well as a PSPACE-hardness result for deciding whether a given game position is a winning position
