This course is amazing for beginners for no prior knowledge about game theory. I especially love the recommendations given at the end of the courses and the honour problems given in the course.

very good introductory course! for a more theoretical understanding of what game theory is about. some interesting applications were brought up to illustrate the types of games as well.

I thought the course admirably fulfilled my expectations for a general introduction to Game Theory.
It kept maths to a minimum and the explanations were clear and always backed up by examples.
Seeed to be very little forum activity, don't know why... maybe that's just says soething about the sort of people who want to learn about Game Theory!
It's a good length with a good amount of time dedicated each week. Sometimes it was a bit challenging, but all round pretty good, I thought.

This is my first time learning game theory as I was accidently received the recommended courses during the time that I took finance course with Yale therefore, Prof. Michihiro explained the lecture step by step then I could understand more about this theory nevertheless, I would re-try again with honor once I had leisure time. Thank you for expanding you knowledge and share with us.

The professor so far has been easy to follow and seems enthusiastic which makes the lecture interesting and easy to tune into.
Auxiliary reading recommendations would be invaluable.
At 4 weeks the course feels rushed. I have spent significant outside of what is in or recommended by the course to further study mixed strategies and mixed strategy equilibria.

The instructor is extremely good. He makes the hard to understand concepts easier.However, I gave this 4/5 stars because the quizzes don't have adequate feedback. It would help new students a lot if it has. The questions were challenging, as expected, but it was fun nonetheless. Hope I had a professor like you when I was in college. Thank you!

Very good course for anyone who wants to learn the basics of Game Theory. I had heard about Game Theory but it was 1st time I have learnt about it. I have found course easy to follow and lectures go in an nice integrated way from one to the following.
On the down side, sometimes the syncronism between gestures and what is shown is not the best

Solid Introduction to Game Theory.
Nothing obviously objectionable in the course structure or presentation.
Accessible, I'd say, for non STEM or Finance majors.
Professor provided additional recommendations for further studies and included links to additional readings beyond the scope of the course for those interested. Strong plus here.

This course was very interesting. Your lectures were very engaging, well-organised and informative. The only thing I would add to the course is more practice problems. The quantitative problems on the tests were very fun to solve and more examples would further solidify my grasp on these concepts. Thank you so much Professor Kandori!

Great Instructor. Wonderful Experience. However, I would like to say, some problems/challenges asked in the Graded Quizzes are hard to understand. Well, that may have been because of my unfamiliarity with the content of Microeconomics in detail. Final Word, he is a great teacher, and lectures are, beyond any doubt, WONDERFUL.

Wonderful course, right amount of basic concepts though could have added another week and gone deeper into few concepts. He is a gem of a instructor, though the flow of his thoughts can be made more smoother, but if you think through it yourself you will understand the deep thoughts on rationality and others

Buen curso para aprender lo que es Teor铆a de Juegos, lo falta mejor coordinaci贸n entre la pantalla y el profesor, pero buen curso. Al principio el acento del profesor es dif铆cil de entender si no est谩s acostumbrado y los subt铆tulos confunden m谩s de lo que ayudan, pero te acostumbras al acento, saludos!

Great introduction to Game Theory. A good place to start. It takes you from the start of the rabbit hole straight to the first cavern. It has opened my eyes to things happening around me, in my community, my country and the world. It aids in answering questions like "Why is religion necessary?"

The course has lots of information and is very helping as a constituting fundamentals for game theory. This staggering amount of information and applications open the gate for students to research more on their own. However, I wasn't happy with the instructor and its repeated way of explaining.

Good introductory course; very high level, as expected by an entry level course. Basic mathematics only, which was good but also a downfall.
Recommend this course, introduces some interesting topics and points. It has convinced my to pursue another course or two minimum in applied game theory.

Excellent course on game theory by prof.Kandori that will get you started on the concept, applications and some concrete assignments that took a bit of work for me to handle. I must do for those who are interested in a high level process theory with concrete applications.

I have taken this course and I strongly recommend it, but it would be difficult to understand the concepts and sustain taking tests. But taking time, being resilient, and revising topics even after the completion of the project will help you to get the most out of it.

This course was really good for someone with zero knowledge about the domain! Taught me a different perspective to approach problems that we face often. However, if the answers to the quizzes would be provided, it would make the understanding of a concept easier.

The presentations are great. My only concern is the instructor unintentionally blocking the slides on occasion and making not so precise pointing gestures which sometimes makes the lecture confusing. Regardless, kudos to an excellent interactive course.

This is a touch of Game Theory for beginners with minimal maths background. (I would consider it as pre-introductory course for getting a sense, or stimulating interest). The course geared more towards social science side rather than Mathematical side.

It is a short and quick course that can serve as a precursor to Yale's course on Game Theory. The card game is very exciting. There are several things which I don't really understand but I think I will figure it out later when taking Yale's course.

Excellent introduction to the subject, good course to follow before diving deeper into Game Theory (as I plan to do). Small problems when showing images but nothing that ruins the experience. Dr. Michihiro Kandori is a great teacher!

A very basic course, and oriented more towards economics and predicting behaviors. The course sure is nice, but not what I had expected. Wanted something more on the logic side. The one by Stanford looks better-suited.

A great way to learn the basics of Game Theory. Not very detailed, but the knowledge gained in this course can definitely make you think in a different way for every day to day business in the light of game theory.

Excellent course and introduction to game theory. Some parts were difficult, but quality teaching needs to be challenging. I think there are areas for improvement, but I would overall recommend the course.

Rather philosophical then mathematical. An accumulation of simple, but essential and interesting reflections on what game theory is and how it relates to reality. Thank you, it was very enjoyable!

i would have liked to see some applications of game theory in politics , it focused sufficiently on economical and sociological situation s but lacked any focus on politics.
