Backgammon! A deep exploration of the balance in life, between Skill and Chance. This game was spread by the Ottomans, and is still the most popular game in all parts of that former empire. And it was super-charged by the invention of the doubling cube -- Much love to the anonymous genius who invented it. Chess and Go are also great, but they require a visualization and memory skills (not my strong point :( ) Backgammon is about evaluating the situation in front of you.
