intelligence (AI) in mobile game design to enhance player experience through adaptive gameplay systems. The study focuses on how AI-driven algorithms adjust game difficulty, narrative progression, and player interaction based on individual player behavior, preferences, and skill levels. Drawing on theories of personalized learning, machine learning, and human-computer interaction, the research investigates the potential for AI to create more immersive and personalized gaming experiences. The paper also examines the ethical considerations of AI in games, particularly concerning data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the manipulation of player behavior.</p> <a href="https://blog-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/5612893407" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/15.jpg" alt="Game Asset Provenance Through Decentralized Ledger Systems" title="Game Asset Provenance Through Decentralized Ledger Systems" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Patrick Russell</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-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/5023489761"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/1.jpg" alt="Mobile Games as Tools for Preserving Indigenous Knowledge: A Case Study Approach" title="Mobile Games as Tools for Preserving Indigenous Knowledge: A Case Study Approach" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-5023489761.mit-edu.top/post/5023489761/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-01</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/5023489761">Mobile Games as Tools for Preserving Indigenous Knowledge: A Case Study Approach</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper examines the psychological factors that drive player motivation in mobile games, focusing on how developers can optimize game design to enhance player engagement and ensure long-term retention. The study investigates key motivational theories, such as Self-Determination Theory and the Theory of Planned Behavior, to explore how intrinsic and extrinsic factors, such as autonomy, competence, and relatedness, influence player behavior. Drawing on empirical studies and player data, the research analyzes how different game mechanics, such as rewards, achievements, and social interaction, shape players’ emotional investment and commitment to games. The paper also discusses the role of narrative, social comparison, and competition in sustaining player motivation over time.</p> <a href="https://blog-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/5023489761" 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="Mobile Games as Tools for Preserving Indigenous Knowledge: A Case Study Approach" title="Mobile Games as Tools for Preserving Indigenous Knowledge: A Case Study Approach" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Samuel Jenkins</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-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/3591064287"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/1.jpg" alt="Social Identity Construction in Persistent Virtual Worlds" title="Social Identity Construction in Persistent Virtual Worlds" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-3591064287.mit-edu.top/post/3591064287/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-01</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-746641202512.mit-edu.top/post/3591064287">Social Identity Construction in Persistent Virtual Worlds</a></h2> <p class="info">This study explores the technical and social challenges associated with cross-platform play in mobile gaming, focusing on how interoperability between different devices and platforms (e.g., iOS, Android, PC, and consoles) can enhance or hinder the player experience. The paper investigates the technical requirements for seamless cross-platform play, including data synchronization, server infrastructure, and device compatibility. From a social perspective, the study examines how cross-platform play influences player communities, social relationships, and competitive dynamics.
