technically the same is true for chess and go, we're just too dumb to grasp them to the extent we can grasp tic-tac-toe

sure, but those games require an IQ of 150 to master, while tic-tac-toe requires 30

Chess and go don't need extremely high IQs, it's mostly about the amount of time you invest in practice. I get annoyed by that cliche that playing chess, go, or with a rubik's cube has anything to do with intelligence and it's cringy to watch students on campus posing with their cubes to make an impression :)

ok sorry I didn't mean IQ in the literal sense, but you need to really think about your moves and practice helps a lot indeed

Rubik's cubes are different, you just have to learn the patterns and practice to do it very quickly
