This is an on-line version of the Prisoner's Dilemma game. Try out several different strategies and see how you score. Which strategy produced the best return? How does your response affect the outcome?

The best stradegy seems to be to cheat the entire time. It would be to best to cooperate the entire time and cheat the last round, but there is no way to know how many rounds there is going to be. the "wizard" is using the tit-for-tat stradegy.

I found cheat to be the best stradegy all the time. I agree with what Angela said that there is no way to know when the rounds will finish.

I cooperated all the times until the last few times, my score was higher but then when zi kept on cheating he would cheat to, so we would end up with the same number of coins every time.

Since the computer won't tell you when its gonna stop, I found it kinda hard to cheat on the last one, since you don't know when it'll stop. I found it just as amusing as the one we did in class. For the one that I used, it seemed to use a tit-for-tat strategy as well.
