• Abstract: In the realm of artificial intelligence and card games, this study introduces a two-step reinforcement learning (RL) strategy tailored for "The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game (LOTRCG)," a complex multistage strategy card game. This research diverges from conventional RL methods by adopting a phased learning approach, beginning with a foundational learning stage in a simplified version of the game and subsequently progressing to the complete, intricate game environment. This methodology notably enhances the AI agent's adaptability and performance in the face of LOTRCG's unpredictable and challenging nature. The paper also explores a multi-agent system, where distinct RL agents are employed for various decision-making aspects of the game. This approach has demonstrated a remarkable improvement in game outcomes, with the RL agents achieving a winrate of 78.5% across a set of 10,000 random games.

  We propose a novel approach, SPRING, to read the game's original academic paper and use the knowledge learned to reason and play the game through a large language model (LLM) In experiments, we study the quality of in-context "reasoning" induced by different forms of prompts under the setting of the Crafter open-world environment. Our experiments suggest that LLMs, when prompted with consistent chain-of-thought, have great potential in completing sophisticated high-level trajectories.

  No-press Diplomacy is a complex strategy game involving both cooperation and competition. We introduce a planning algorithm we call DiL-piKL that regularizes a reward-maximizing policy toward a human imitation-learned policy. We show that DiL-piKL can be extended into a self-play reinforcement learning algorithm we call RL-DiL-piKL.

Our results show that this algorithm is capable of achieving these goals even for an extensive collection of game levels beyond those used for training.

  Reinforcement Learning (RL) relies on an agent interacting with an environment to maximize the cumulative sum of rewards received by it. In multi-player Monopoly game, players have to make several decisions every turn which involves complex actions, such as making trades. This paper introduces a Hybrid Model-Free Deep RL (DRL) approach that is capable of playing and learning winning strategies of Monopoly.
