- Abstract
Achievement games are special types of games in which Player 1 creates a polynomio by placing tokens on a board, while Player 2 defends against this creation. It has been shown that most polynomios are either winners or losers, except for the polynomio called Snaky. This thesis studies why it is important to research achievement games that use polynomios and establish what methods could be used to help prove Snaky a winner or loser through machine learning and neural networks.
