What makes you think chess is any different?
Chess is a game of complete information in which there only one goal and that means capturing the king.
If you read deeper in the variant tree than your opponent, you win. That why computers usually beat humans in chess nowadays.
You know the rules of chess and can read them. You don't know the rules of life.

In chess you know all the figures on the board and you know the rules. While there might be some cases where the mind of your opponent can matter because he could make mistakes that you provoce, if you find the optimal move on the board you still win regardless of what your opponent thinks.
