Absolute combinatorial game theory was recently developed as a unifying tool for constructive/local game comparison (Larsson et al. 2018). The theory concerns parental universes of combinatorial games; standard closure properties are satisfied and each pair of non-empty sets of forms of the universe makes a form of the universe. Here we prove that there is an infinite number of absolute misère universes, by recursively expanding the dicot misère universe and the dead-ending universe. On the other hand, we prove that normal-play has exactly two absolute universes, namely the full space, and the universe of all-small games.
