The concepts of game theory are universal, as games, even though they often seem unreal due to their “packaging”, are a representation of the mechanics and dynamics of reality with just one or a few additional attributes.
- “When you give someone a toy of a system,” explains renowned game designer Will Wright, “it gives them a new perspective on it
. They see that system as a dynamic, organic thing
. Living in it in the real world, they don’t notice day-to-day changes in it, but when that system is sped up over 50 years or more, they see the changes clearly. And they gain a new perspective on it.”
