Coordination Games

Coordination games are situations where individuals must choose strategies that align with others to achieve the best outcome for everyone involved. Imagine two friends trying to meet for lunch: if they both choose the same restaurant, they enjoy a meal together, but if they pick different places, they miss out. The challenge lies in the uncertainty of the other's choice. Coordination games highlight the importance of communication and shared expectations, demonstrating how cooperation can lead to mutually beneficial results. Examples include driving on the same side of the road, attending events, or even agreeing on social norms.
