Wythoff's Nim is a variant of 2-pile Nim in which players are allowed to take any positive number of stones from pile 1, or any positive number of stones from pile 2, or the same positive number from both piles. The player who makes the…

In this paper we study a family of 2-pile Take Away games, that we denote by Generalized Diagonal Wythoff Nim (GDWN). The story begins with 2-pile Nim whose sets of options and $P$-positions are $\{\{0,t\}\mid t\in \N\}$ and $\{(t,t)\mid…

We study impartial take away games on 2 unordered piles of finite nonnegative numbers of tokens $(x,y)$. Two players alternate in removing at least one and at most all tokens from the respective piles, according to certain rules, and the…

We introduce a variant of Wythoff's Game that we call $m$-Modular Wythoff's Game. In the original Wythoff's Game, players can take a positive number of tokens from one pile, or they can take a positive number of tokens from both piles if…

In this paper, we study a variant of the classical Wythoff's game. The classical form is played with two piles of stones, from which two players take turns to remove stones from one or both piles. When removing stones from both piles, an…

Wythoff's Game is a game for two players playing alternately on two stacks of tiles. On her turn, a player can either remove a positive number of tiles from one stack, or remove an equal positive number of tiles from both stacks. The last…

The authors introduce the impartial game of the generalized Ry\=u\=o Nim, a variant of the classical game of Wythoff Nim. In the latter game, two players take turns in moving a single queen on a large chessboard, attempting to be the first…

This paper describes Wythoff's game with a pass, which is a variant of the classical Wythoff's game. The classical form is played with two piles of stones, from which two players take turns to remove stones from one or both piles. When…

The 2-player impartial game of Wythoff Nim is played on two piles of tokens. A move consists in removing any number of tokens from precisely one of the piles or the same number of tokens from both piles. The winner is the player who removes…

We study the problem whether there exist variants of {\sc Wythoff}'s game whose $\P$-positions, except for a finite number, are obtained from those of {\sc Wythoff}'s game by adding a constant $k$ to each $\P$-position. We solve this…

We introduce a restriction of Wythoff's game, which we call F-Wythoff, in which the integer ratio of entries must not change if an equal number of tokens are removed from both piles. We show that P-positions of F-Wythoff are exactly those…

We present two variants of Wythoff's game. The first game is a restriction of Wythoff's game in which removing tokens from the smaller pile is not allowed if the two entries are not equal. The second game is an extension of Wythoff's game…

We introduce a new generalization of Wythoff Nim using three piles of stones. We show that its P-positions have finite difference properties and produce a partition of positive integers. Further, we give a conjecture that the P-positions…

We modify Wythoff's game by allowing an additional move, which we call a "split", and show how the $P$-positions are coded by the Tribonacci word. We analyze the table of letter positions of arbitrary $k$-bonacci words and find a…

In this paper, we study a combination (called the generalized cyclic Nimhoff) of the cyclic Nimhoff and subtraction games. We give the $\mathcal{G}$-value of the game when all the $\mathcal{G}$-value sequence of subtraction games have a…

Yama Nim is a two heaps Nim game introduced in the second author's Master Thesis, where the player takes more than $2$ tokens from one heap, and return $1$ token to the other heap. Triangular Nim is a generalization, where the player takes…

Partially-ordered set games, also called poset games, are a class of two-player combinatorial games. The playing field consists of a set of elements, some of which are greater than other elements. Two players take turns removing an element…
