customization in mobile games, focusing on how avatar and character customization can influence player identity, self-expression, and engagement. The research examines how customizing characters, outfits, and other in-game features enables players to create personalized experiences that reflect their preferences and identities. Drawing on social identity theory and self-concept research, the paper investigates how customization fosters emotional attachment to the game, as well as its impact on player behavior, such as social interaction and competition. The study also explores the commercial implications of offering customizable in-game items, including microtransactions and virtual economies.</p> <a href="https://blog-572022305747.mit-edu.top/post/5948721630" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/4.jpg" alt="Dynamic Balancing of Virtual Currency Inflation in Persistent Game Worlds" title="Dynamic Balancing of Virtual Currency Inflation in Persistent Game Worlds" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Ann Gonzales</strong> <span>2025-02-01 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-572022305747.mit-edu.top/post/1560927348"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/16.jpg" alt="Exploring Nonlinear Narratives in Mobile Game Storytelling" title="Exploring Nonlinear Narratives in Mobile Game Storytelling" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-1560927348.mit-edu.top/post/1560927348/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-01</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-572022305747.mit-edu.top/post/1560927348">Exploring Nonlinear Narratives in Mobile Game Storytelling</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper systematically reviews the growing body of literature on the use of mobile games as interventions in mental health treatment, particularly focusing on anxiety, depression, and cognitive disorders. The study examines various approaches to game-based therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based games, assessing their effectiveness in improving emotional well-being and mental resilience. The paper proposes a conceptual framework that integrates psychological theories with game design principles to develop therapeutic mobile games.
