effects of time-limited events in mobile games, which often include special challenges, rewards, and limited-time offers. The study explores how event-based gameplay influences player motivation, urgency, and spending behavior. Drawing on behavioral psychology and concepts such as loss aversion and temporal discounting, the paper investigates how time-limited events create a sense of scarcity and urgency that may lead to increased player engagement, as well as potential negative consequences such as compulsive behavior or gaming addiction. The research also evaluates how well-designed time-limited events can enhance player experiences without exploiting players’ emotional vulnerabilities.</p> <a href="https://blog-101720652456.mit-edu.top/post/8123470965" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/16.jpg" alt="Scalable Consensus Mechanisms for High-Throughput Game Transactions" title="Scalable Consensus Mechanisms for High-Throughput Game Transactions" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Dorothy King</strong> <span>2025-02-04 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-101720652456.mit-edu.top/post/4572901386"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/1.jpg" alt="Economic Impacts of the Mobile Gaming Industry: A Global Perspective" title="Economic Impacts of the Mobile Gaming Industry: A Global Perspective" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-4572901386.mit-edu.top/post/4572901386/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-04</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-101720652456.mit-edu.top/post/4572901386">Economic Impacts of the Mobile Gaming Industry: A Global Perspective</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper investigates the dynamics of cooperation and competition in multiplayer mobile games, focusing on how these social dynamics shape player behavior, engagement, and satisfaction.
