Stratego's rules are pretty easy to learn but the beauty is there is so much strategy involved that each game can have wildly different outcomes. Being that there is so much choice in how to strategize every game there is truly a limitless amount of fun to be had.

Pro
Creative thinking and playing the other player take a large role

Players can arrange their troops however they like which begins a game of strategy but also a game of playing your opponent. By trying to trick or manipulate the other player the game becomes more in depth as a match of will.

Cons

Con
Character pictures have to be manually placed

The character pictures have to be manually placed on each individual plastic board piece, which is time consuming and really should have just been done at the factory.
