psychological implications of microtransaction systems in mobile games, particularly in free-to-play models. The study examines how microtransactions, which allow players to purchase in-game items, cosmetics, or advantages, influence player behavior, spending habits, and overall satisfaction. Drawing on ethical theory and psychological models of consumer decision-making, the paper explores how microtransactions contribute to the phenomenon of “pay-to-win,” exploitation of vulnerable players, and player frustration. The research also evaluates the psychological impact of loot boxes, virtual currency, and in-app purchases, offering recommendations for ethical monetization practices that prioritize player well-being without compromising developer profitability.</p> <a href="https://blog-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/2035974816" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/20.jpg" alt="Secure Cloud Gaming Solutions for Mobile Multiplayer Environments" title="Secure Cloud Gaming Solutions for Mobile Multiplayer Environments" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Kenneth Nelson</strong> <span>2025-02-03 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-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/0859317264"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/17.jpg" alt="Mitigating Cyberbullying in Multiplayer Game Communities Through AI Moderation" title="Mitigating Cyberbullying in Multiplayer Game Communities Through AI Moderation" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-0859317264.mit-edu.top/post/0859317264/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-03</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/0859317264">Mitigating Cyberbullying in Multiplayer Game Communities Through AI Moderation</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper provides a comparative legal analysis of intellectual property (IP) rights as they pertain to mobile game development, focusing on the protection of game code, design elements, and in-game assets across different jurisdictions. The study examines the legal challenges that developers face when navigating copyright, trademark, and patent law in the global mobile gaming market. By comparing IP regulations in the United States, the European Union, and Asia, the paper identifies key legal barriers and proposes policy recommendations to foster innovation while protecting the intellectual property of creators. The study also considers emerging issues such as the ownership of user-generated content and the legal status of in-game assets like NFTs.</p> <a href="https://blog-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/0859317264" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/11.jpg" alt="Mitigating Cyberbullying in Multiplayer Game Communities Through AI Moderation" title="Mitigating Cyberbullying in Multiplayer Game Communities Through AI Moderation" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Rebecca Cook</strong> <span>2025-02-03 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-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/6183495702"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/5.jpg" alt="Seasonal Events and Their Effect on In-Game Revenue Streams" title="Seasonal Events and Their Effect on In-Game Revenue Streams" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-6183495702.mit-edu.top/post/6183495702/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-03</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-248989409541.mit-edu.top/post/6183495702">Seasonal Events and Their Effect on In-Game Revenue Streams</a></h2> <p class="info">This research explores the potential of augmented reality (AR)-powered mobile games for enhancing educational experiences. The study examines how AR technology can be integrated into mobile games to provide immersive learning environments where players interact with both virtual and physical elements in real-time. Drawing on educational theories and gamification principles, the paper explores how AR mobile games can be used to teach complex concepts, such as science, history, and mathematics, through interactive simulations and hands-on learning.
