Death Stacks is an abstract strategy board game for two players invented by Stephen Euin Cobb. Abstract strategy games have no random elements (such as dice) or hidden information (such as playing cards). Chess and Checkers are abstract strategy board games.
The Annual Death Stacks Tournament is held in Charlotte North Carolina each summer and is hosted by the science fiction convention ConCarolinas.
Death Stacks can be classified as a variant of the game Focus by Sid Sackson, published in A Gamut of Games.
