The Asymmetric Public Goods Game (APGG) C++ framework offers an easy to use environment to study game theoretical questions. Specifically, it is designed to address questions in the domain of asymmetric public goods games. The modular architecture allows for a vast amount of scenarios and setups for experimenting with different public goods games, using easy to change parameters. Users can experiment with well mixed and structured populations as well as with symmetric and asymmetric payoffs. APGG also features group level payoffs and individual payoffs, and different evolutionary selection mechanisms (Miller et al., 1995) and replication schemes. Results are automatically saved in semantic and descriptive structures and can be easily visualized with the included Python scripts. This paper aims to explain the functionality and the structure of the framework, to show the workflow that APGG follows, to present the different modules that are available, and to show how APGG can be used to run experiments with public goods games on example scenarios.
