Example game theory quiz questions

In a Prisoner's Dilemma, what is the dominant strategy for each player?Defect, because it gives a better payoff no matter what the other player chooses.

What is a Nash equilibrium?A strategy profile where no player can gain by changing only their own strategy, because each choice is a best response to the others.

True or false: in a zero-sum game, one player's gain is exactly the other player's loss.True, because the payoffs in every outcome add up to zero.

Why is backward induction used to solve game trees?It finds the best move at the final decision points first, so each earlier choice accounts for what rational players will do later.

What does a mixed strategy mean?Randomizing over pure strategies with set probabilities, which is needed when no pure-strategy equilibrium exists, as in matching pennies.

Questions from your material

DeckOwl reads PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages, then writes questions based only on what you gave it.

Explanations for every answer

Each question comes with an explanation, so a wrong answer teaches you why the right one is correct.

Study in the browser for free

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with no credit card needed to start.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, plain text or a photo of a page from your course.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions, then generate your quiz.

Play through the quiz

Work through the questions, read the explanations and repeat the ones you miss.

DeckOwl does not list a live multiplayer mode, so if you need a whole class playing together in real time, a live-game platform is the better fit. What DeckOwl does is turn your readings and lecture slides into a question set you can replay on your own schedule.

Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Frequently asked questions

How should I study game theory for an exam?

Work through the core concepts first, such as dominant strategies, Nash equilibrium and backward induction, then practice applying each one to a specific game. Quizzing yourself on payoff tables and explaining each answer out loud is more effective than rereading.

What is the fastest way to memorize Nash equilibria?

Practice finding the equilibrium in several small payoff matrices, checking each cell for a player who could do better by switching. Repeating this across different games builds the habit faster than memorizing definitions alone.

Does DeckOwl run a live multiplayer game like Gimkit?

No. DeckOwl creates quiz questions from your own material that you study in your browser, and it does not list a live multiplayer mode.
