Strategy

Strategy - Game Theory Analysis

Analyze user-provided scenarios using game theory frameworks.

Process

1. Parse the scenario - Extract:

   • Players/actors (who makes decisions)
   • Actions/strategies (what choices exist)
   • Outcomes (what happens for each combination)
   • Probabilities (if uncertainty exists)
   • Payoffs (survival, money, utility - clarify units)

2. Identify game type:

   • Sequential vs simultaneous moves
   • Complete vs incomplete information
   • One-shot vs repeated
   • Zero-sum vs non-zero-sum

3. Build the model:

   • Decision tree (sequential/uncertainty)
   • Payoff matrix (simultaneous)
   • Expected value calculations

4. Solve:

   • Dominant strategies
