Each year the Arimaa World
Championship tournaments are held to determine the best
human Arimaa player and the best computer Arimaa player
for the year. The games are
played over the Internet and everyone is welcome to
participate and watch. Even the spectators have a
great time since
the games are always very exciting and
there are prizes for predicting the winners.
A Postal Mixer is also
held each year where players can participate in correspondence games.
