The video was well-motivated with games like Connect 4, tic-tac-toe, and chess and I liked the use of examples throughout the video. However, it was kind of hard to understand what the video was working towards. There was a general frame-work given for how strategies work, but it felt like there was a lack of a narrative that the video was working towards. Maybe focusing only on one game would help the video feel a little less scattered. (Also the audio was extremely quiet, and the pacing felt a bit too slow at the start)

You should upload video with higher volume
That was great! Thanks :-)
Think of all logic as games makes my gamer heart happy.
I enjoyed seeing how complicated logic statements are just games. It made me realize the process of mathematical proof is just finding a winning strategy, like a mathematician playing chess.
I think that all of the sections in this video were well-explained and manageable for the target audience to understand, while still being engaging and thought-provoking. One thing I am interested in is what we can determine about non-combinatorial games. Is there an extension of Zermelo’s theorem or something we can infer about games where the players don’t have perfect information, or there are more than 2 players?
This was a very good explained video, what you lacked was a better introduction and some better narration, but very good overall!
The connection between game theory and logic is interesting, and you do a great job explaining it. The digression into tiebreakers is a bit distracting and interrupts the flow.
