I'm not sure I understand the question -- in a sense pretty much all games that have a single winner are "zero sum" in that only one person can be the winner. But maybe I'm misunderstanding -- could you provide some context?
- muzani 4y agoZero sum means that when one player gains an advantage of +1, another player loses the advantage. Chess is a perfect example. Monopoly does not count as positive sum IMO because when other players get rich, you end up paying more rent. Cooperative games where multiple players are good vs a few bad ones may be positive sum.
