In game theory, differential games are dynamic games that unfold in continuous time, meaning players’ actions and outcomes evolve smoothly rather than in discrete steps, and for which the rate of change of each state variable—like position, speed, or resource level—is governed by a differential equation. This distinguishes them from turn-based games (sequential games) like chess, focusing instead on real-time strategic conflicts.
