I like this question a lot. It provides an interesting way of talking about some of the ideas connected with the maximality principle and the modal logic of forcing. Let me make several observations. First, Alice can clearly win, in one move, with any forceably necessary statement $\sigma$, which is a statement for which $\newcommand\possible{\Diamond}\newcommand\necessary{\Box}\possible\necessary\sigma$ holds in the modal logic of forcing, meaning that one can force so as to make $\sigma$ remain true in all further forcing extensions. She should simply force to make $\necessary\sigma$ true, and then Bob cannot prevent $\sigma$ in any further extension, including the limit model. Under the [maximality principle](http://jdh.hamkins.org/maximalityprinciple/), all such statements are already true. Let me point out that there are some subtle issues about formalization in the question. For example, the strategies here would be proper class sized objects, and so one must stipulate whether one is working in ZFC with only definable classes or whether one has GBC or KM or whatever and whether global choice holds. Another difficulty concerns the determinacy of the game, since even [open determinacy for class games](http://jdh.hamkins.org/open-determinacy-for-class-games/) is not a theorem of GBC. Meanwhile, here is something positive to say. I shall consider only the direct-limit version of the game. **Theorem.** Suppose there is a closed unbounded class of cardinals $\kappa$ such that the statement $\sigma$ is forced by the collapse forcing of $\kappa$ to $\omega$. Then Alice has a winning strategy in the $\sigma$ game. **Proof.** Let $C$ be the class club of such $\kappa$, and let Alice simply play always to collapse the next element of $C$ above the size of the previous forcing played by Bob. It follows that the limit forcing $\mathbb{P}$ will collapse all the cardinals up to an element $\kappa\in C$, and since $\kappa$ will have cofinality $\omega$, it will also collapse $\kappa$ itself. Since the forcing will also have size $\kappa$, in the direct limit case, it follows that the forcing is isomorphic to $\text{Coll}(\omega,\kappa)$, and so $\sigma$ holds in the model $V[G]$, so Alice has won. $\Box$ For example, if the GCH holds, then CH will be such a statement $\sigma$, even though this is a switch, because the collapse forcing will collapse $\kappa$ and the CH will hold in $V[G]$, as a residue of the GCH in $V$. Thus, the GCH implies that Alice can win the CH game. A dual analysis is: **Theorem.** If the class of cardinals $\kappa$ of countable cofinality for which the collapse forcing $\text{Coll}(\omega,\kappa)$ forces $\sigma$ is stationary, then Alice can defeat any strategy of Bob in the $\sigma$ game. **Proof.** For any strategy for Bob, there is a club of cardinals $\theta$ such that $V_\theta$ is closed under the strategy, in the sense that if Alice plays a poset in $V_\theta$ then Bob's strategy will reply with a strategy in $V_\theta$. So by the stationary assumption of the theorem, there is a $\kappa$ of countable cofinality that is closed under the strategy. Alice can now play so as to collapse more and more of $\kappa$, and Bob will always reply with a poset below $\kappa$. So the limit forcing will again be the collapse of $\kappa$, which forces $\sigma$. So Alice can defeat this strategy. $\Box$ For example, if the GCH fails on a closed unbounded class of cardinals with countable cofinality (this contradicts SCH), then Alice can win with $\neg$CH. And if it fails on a stationary class of such cardinals, then Bob cannot win the $\neg$CH game. **Theorem.** From suitable consistency assumptions, it is consistent with GBC that the CH game is not determined with respect to class strategies. **Proof.** Using the Foreman-Woodin theorem that it is relatively consistent that GCH fails everywhere, we can perform additional forcing by first adding a generic class of cardinals, and then collapsing cardinals. The result will be a model of GBC where the class of cardinals $\kappa$ of cofinality $\omega$ at which the GCH holds is both stationary and co-stationary. By the theorem above, considered from either Alice's or Bob's perspective, either player can defeat any strategy of the other player. So the game is not determined. $\Box$ I guess the argument isn't just about CH, but rather any statement $\sigma$ such that there is a stationary/co-stationary class of $\kappa$ of countable cofinality such that $\sigma$ holds after the collapse of $\kappa$. In such a case, neither player can have a winning strategy. The ideas appear to culminate in answer to question 1. **Theorem.** The following are equivalent for any statement $\sigma$. 1. Alice has a winning strategy in the $\sigma$ game. 2. The class of cardinals $\kappa$ of countable cofinality, such that the collapse forcing of $\kappa$ to $\omega$ forces $\sigma$, contains a class club. **Proof.** Statement 2 implies statement 1 by the first theorem above. Conversely, if statement 2 fails, then there is a stationary class of such $\kappa$ where $\sigma$ fails in the collapse extension. In this case, Bob can defeat any strategy for Alice, by Bob's analogue of the second theorem. $\Box$
