The Roman game domination number of an undirected graph G is defined by the following game. Players \(\mathcal {A}\) and \(\mathcal {D}\) orient the edges of the graph G alternately, with \(\mathcal {D}\) playing first, until all edges are oriented. Player \(\mathcal {D}\) (frequently called Dominator) tries to minimize the Roman domination number of the resulting digraph, while player \(\mathcal {A}\) (Avoider) tries to maximize it. This game gives a unique number depending only on G, if we suppose that both \(\mathcal {A}\) and \(\mathcal {D}\) play according to their optimal strategies. This number is called the Roman game domination number of G and is denoted by \(\gamma _{Rg}(G)\). In this paper we initiate the study of the Roman game domination number of a graph and we establish some bounds on \(\gamma _{Rg}(G)\). We also determine the Roman game domination number for some classes of graphs.
