  2. GNS theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNS_theory

    GNS theory is an informal field of study developed by Ron Edwards which attempts to create a unified theory of how role-playing games work. Focused on player behavior, in GNS theory participants in role-playing games organize their interactions around three categories of engagement: Gamism, Narrativism and Simulation.

  3. Algorithmic game theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_game_theory

    Algorithmic game theory (AGT) is an area in the intersection of game theory and computer science, with the objective of understanding and design of algorithms in strategic environments. Typically, in Algorithmic Game Theory problems, the input to a given algorithm is distributed among many players who have a personal interest in the output.

  4. Role-playing game theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-playing_game_theory

    Role-playing game theory is the study of role-playing games (RPGs) as a social or artistic phenomenon, also known as ludology.RPG theories seek to understand what role-playing games are, how they function, and how the gaming process can be refined in order to improve the play experience and produce better game products.

  5. Fictitious play - Wikipedia

    Brown first introduced fictitious play as an explanation for Nash equilibrium play. He imagined that a player would "simulate" play of the game in their mind and update their future play based on this simulation; hence the name fictitious play. In terms of current use, the name is a bit of a misnomer, since each play of the game actually occurs.

  7. Beer distribution game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_distribution_game

    It reflects a role-play simulation where several participants play with each other. The game represents a supply chain with a non-coordinated process where problems arise due to lack of information sharing. [1] This game outlines the importance of information sharing, supply chain management and collaboration throughout a supply chain process ...

  8. Signaling game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signaling_game

    An extensive form representation of a signaling game. In game theory, a signaling game is a simple type of a dynamic Bayesian game. [1]The essence of a signalling game is that one player takes an action, the signal, to convey information to another player, where sending the signal is more costly if they are conveying false information.

  9. Simulation video game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_video_game

    Life simulation games (or artificial life games) [10] are a subgenre of simulation video games in which the player lives or controls one or more artificial lifeforms. A life simulation game can revolve around "individuals and relationships, or it could be a simulation of an ecosystem". [10] Social simulation games are one of its subgenres.
