Same for AlphaGo, but it only works when you have access to cheap simulation (breakout being a game easy to run, Go being just a board). It doesn't work as well in situations where you don't see the full state of the system, or where there is randomness.

AlphaGo did pretty well in Starcraft 2. Even though it is still pretty far from the best players in the world.
