Deterministic agents without memory or access to randomness. You also don't need free will to implement a 'mixed' strategy rather than a 'pure' strategy, as that problem calls for.
Given what leplen appears to mean by “free-will”, I wouldn't call any agent with access to randomness “deterministic” in this context.
