Abstract

We introduce a variant of Wythoff's Game that we call mm-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 the number of tokens they take from the first pile is equal to the number of tokens they take from the second. In our variant, we weaken this equality condition to one of equivalence modulo mm. We characterize the P-positions of our mm-Modular variant as a finite subset of the P-positions of the known P-positions of the original Wythoff's Game.
