About:
Gambit is a comprehensive suite of software tools for game theory, designed to construct and analyze strategic games. It provides a graphical interface and command-line utilities for computing Nash equilibria and other solution concepts. Its main value is enabling researchers and students to solve complex games efficiently.
Key Features:
  • Graphical User Interface (GUI) for visualizing games
  • Command-line interface (CLI) for scripting and automation
  • Supports computing Nash equilibria for non-cooperative games
  • Supports extensive form games (tree-based analysis)
Use Cases:
  • Academic research in economics and game theory
  • Solving complex decision-making problems in business strategy
Alternatives:
  • Python (Nashpy/Gambit Python bindings) – More flexible for integration into larger Python workflows, but Gambit offers a dedicated GUI and broader C-based solver performance.
