One Pile

One Pile is the most direct generalization of Scoring and the simplest of the Subtraction games. On each move a player is permitted to remove any number of objects bounded both from above and below. (In the applet, a move is performed by pressing one of the buttons located on the perimeter of the drawing area. The Min and Max attributes can be modified by clicking a little off their central line.)
