近年来，当地经济的衰退变得更加严重。地区差距扩大的原因是人口、货物和资金从地方经济中流失。共同体货币被认为是解决区域差距问题的一个可能办法。不过，社区货币在地方振兴上取得成功的情况并不多见。“社区货币游戏”旨在通过使用社区货币的实验性交易阐明地方振兴的效果。在本文中，我们提出了一个社区货币游戏，旨在增加了解的机制，其中囚犯困境影响消费者在当地经济的行为。社区货币游戏“Online Shopping.com“由三个小游戏组成。第一种是“无声交易游戏”，第二种是“对话式交易游戏”，第三种是“社区货币对话式交易游戏”。在游戏3中，我们发现大多数参与者选择了城镇商店。此外，该镇的国内生产总值（在该镇购买的总额）也有所增加。通过这三个游戏，我们了解到社区货币有能力让参与者摆脱囚徒困境。
The decline of local economies has become more serious in recent years. The reason for the widening regional disparities is the drain of people, goods, and money from local economies. Community currencies are considered to be a possible solution to the problem of regional disparities. However, it is rare for a community currency to succeed in local revitalization. The “community currency game” aims to elucidate the effects of local revitalization through experimental trading using a community currency. In this paper, we present a community currency game that aims to increase understanding of the mechanism by which the prisoner’s dilemma affects the behavior of consumers in a local economy. The community currency game “Online Shopping.com” consists of three mini games. The first is the “silent trading game”, the second is the “conversational trading game”, and the third is the “conversational trading game with community currency”. In game 3, we found that most participants chose the town stores. Also, the gross domestic product of the town (total amount purchased in the town) increased. Through the three games, we learned that community currencies have the power to allow participants to escape from the prisoner’s dilemma.
