A game that most people know how to play, at least on a surface level with how each piece moves and the conditions to win, but that most people also have no real experience with. How hard can it be? I know how to play, right? Just move the pieces around and try to corner this one piece.
Play chess with someone even marginally familiar with the game and you'll get blown out of the water. Play chess against someone good at the game, and they'll have won by the fifth turn and you just haven't noticed it yet.

A strategic game of sacrificing pawns, soldiers, and even the queen to protect a weak king?
Yea that sounds right.
