QGameTheory is a contributed R package that helps in simulating quantum versions of various game theory models. It is a general-purpose toolbox that works with a simple quantum computing framework, known as the quantum circuit model to perform various computations. The current version of the package makes use of a maximum of six qubits and a total number of seven game theory models. Application of quantum computation in game theory, which gives rise to many interesting results, like the escape from the dilemma in the case of Quantum Prisoner's Dilemma, which otherwise persists in the classical case. The objective of this presentation is to introduce the package, which the user can use to learn quantum computation and game theory before analyzing various quantum games. Quantum versions of models that have been handled within the package are: Penny Flip Game, Prisoner's Dilemma, Two Person Duel, Battle of the Sexes, Hawk and Dove Game, Newcomb's Paradox and Monty Hall Problem.
