Abstract
We show that the $^*$-algebra of the product of two synchronous games is the tensor product of the corresponding $^*$-algebras. We prove that the product game has a perfect C$^*$-strategy if and only if each of the individual games does, and that in this case the C$^*$-algebra of the product game is $^*$-isomorphic to the maximal C$^*$-tensor product of the individual C$^*$-algebras. We provide examples of synchronous games whose synchronous values are strictly supermultiplicative.
