Of course, the variety in gameplay is also enormous. Two aspects in which tabletop games can differ quite significantly are hidden information and [[RandomNumberGod random elements]]. For example, in chess, there is no hidden information and no randomness; everything is determined by the players' own actions, and everything in the game is revealed to both players. In ''TabletopGame/{{Stratego}}'' and ''TabletopGame/{{Diplomacy}}'', there are no random elements either, but the amount of hidden information is huge, and deceiving your opponent(s) is an important part of gameplay. In the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_the_Goose Game of the Goose]], there is no hidden information, but the randomness is turned up – ''[[LuckBasedMission everything]]'' [[LuckBasedMission is random]], and players have zero control over the outcome of the game. Poker is a good example of a game that features both random elements (which cards you are dealt) and hidden information (your opponents' hands). Most games likewise have a little of both. There also exist games which incorporate other media in addition to the base content of the game, such as those which involve a [[UsefulNotes/{{VCR}} VHS tape]] or UsefulNotes/{{DVD}} to display in tandem with the physical game, introducing further elements and events during play.
