How Do We Decide What Is ‘Fair’ in a Game?

Fair means everyone gets a good chance to win. Like when you and your friend take turns picking who goes first in a game, that’s fair because no one has an advantage from the start. But if one person always picks first, it might feel unfair because they get to choose the best spot every time.
