  We consider the two-player game chomp on posets associated to numerical
semigroups and show that the analysis of strategies for chomp is strongly
related to classical properties of semigroups. We characterize, which player
has a winning-strategy for symmetric semigroups, semigroups of maximal
embedding dimension and several families of numerical semigroups generated by
arithmetic sequences. Furthermore, we show that which player wins on a given
numerical semigroup is a decidable question. Finally, we extend several of our
results to the more general setting of subsemigroups of $\mathbb{N} \times T$,
where $T$ is a finite abelian group.
