The ongoing second quantum revolution, marked by advancements harnessing quantum phenomena, has permeated various fields, including communications, computation, and networking, collectively known as quantum technologies (QTs). Quantum computing, a focal point within QT, has led to the emergence of quantum games, a novel research and development area exploring creative applications of quantum computing in game development. While more than 300 quantum games have been developed by enthusiasts and commercial parties, a comprehensive research program or state-of-the-art review is notably absent. This article addresses this gap by conducting a thorough literature review, presenting current advancements and examples in quantum games and interactive designs, and exploring future prospects for QT in game development practices.

Quantum games have gained considerable interest from researchers. In this paper, on the basis of the Web of Science database, through the use of the social network analysis methods, the literature on quantum games is analyzed from three aspects: the keywords co-occurrence, co-authorship, and co-citation. In the process of analysis, the main quantum game models are reviewed with graphical illustrations. Our paper provides a survey and outline of the current status of research in this field, and identify directions for future work.
