Surprised not to see reference to philosopher Brian Skyrms' book titled The Stag Hunt and the Evolution of Social Structure. It's a great overview of how this game (in particular as opposed to traditional prisoners' dilemmas) is relevant for understanding the challenges involved in the evolution of cooperation.
In academic philosophy morality has been argued to be an iterated prisoners dilemma, but not one game (as far as I know).
See Skyrms and Axlerod.
There are better references but I'd have to pull out some old class notes.
