An abstract strategy game is a board, card or other game where game play does not simulate a real world theme, and a player's decisions affect the outcome.Many abstract strategy games are also combinatorial, i.e. they provide perfect information, and rely on neither physical dexterity nor random elements such as rolling dice or drawing cards or tiles.
The extensive form of this multi-stage game is shown in Figure 5: Figure 5. Each of the two stages has two Nash Equilibria: which are (A, a), (B, b), (X, x), and (Y, y). If the complete contingent strategy of Player 1 matches Player 2 (i.e. AXXXX, axxxx), it will be a Nash Equilibrium. There are 32 such combinations in this multi-stage game.
Two integers, p and q. The first player, BoxMaker, picks p balls (from the same or different boxes). Then the second player, BoxBreaker, breaks q boxes. And so on. BoxMaker wins if he has managed to pick all balls in at least one box, before BoxBreaker managed to break this box. BoxBreaker wins if he has managed to break all the boxes.
In game theory, a repeated game (or iterated game) is an extensive form game that consists of a number of repetitions of some base game (called a stage game). The stage game is usually one of the well-studied 2-person games. Repeated games capture the idea that a player will have to take into account the impact of their current action on the ...
Net and wall games, such as volleyball. Racket sports, such as tennis, table tennis, squash and badminton. Throwing sports, such as dodgeball and bocce. Cue sports, such as pool and snooker. Target sports, such as golf and bowling. Hand and ball-striking games, such as various handball codes, rebound handball, and four square.
Box game may refer to: Black Box, a board game for one or two players that simulates shooting rays into a black box to deduce the locations of "atoms" hidden inside; The Box, a British television game show; Box-making game, a biased positional game where two players alternately pick elements from a family of pairwise-disjoint sets ("boxes")
The best-known example of a 2-player anti-coordination game is the game of Chicken (also known as Hawk-Dove game). Using the payoff matrix in Figure 1, a game is an anti-coordination game if B > A and C > D for row-player 1 (with lowercase analogues b > d and c > a for column-player 2). {Down, Left} and {Up, Right} are the two pure Nash equilibria.
A game of dots and boxes. Dots and boxes is a pencil-and-paper game for two players (sometimes more). It was first published in the 19th century by French mathematician Édouard Lucas, who called it la pipopipette. [1] It has gone by many other names, [2] including dots and dashes, game of dots, [3] dot to dot grid, [4] boxes, [5] and pigs in a ...
