== Gameplay ==
[[First to 12]] is a two-player game. The winning condition is to be the player that makes a common score reach 12 first. Each player's turn consist of raising the common score (which starts at zero) by one or two points.

The game has an easy dominant strategy for the second player: regardless of the first player's move, raise to 3 with one's first move, then raise to 6, 9, and 12 with subsequent moves. These moves are always possible given that the preceding moves have been made.
