mobile games in the development of social capital within online multiplayer communities. The study draws on social capital theory to examine how players form bonds, share resources, and collaborate within game environments. By analyzing network structures, social interactions, and community dynamics, the paper investigates how mobile games contribute to the creation of virtual social networks that extend beyond gameplay and influence offline relationships. The research also explores the role of mobile games in fostering a sense of belonging and collective identity, while addressing the potential for social exclusion, toxicity, and exploitation within game communities.</p> <a href="https://blog-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/9673152480" 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="Mobile Games as Educational Platforms for Indigenous Language Revitalization" title="Mobile Games as Educational Platforms for Indigenous Language Revitalization" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>John Smith</strong> <span>2025-02-06 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-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/7508196234"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/12.jpg" alt="Exploring the Role of Scarcity in Driving Virtual Goods Demand" title="Exploring the Role of Scarcity in Driving Virtual Goods Demand" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-7508196234.mit-edu.top/post/7508196234/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-06</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/7508196234">Exploring the Role of Scarcity in Driving Virtual Goods Demand</a></h2> <p class="info">This research examines the role of geolocation-based augmented reality (AR) games in transforming how urban spaces are perceived and interacted with by players. The study investigates how AR mobile games such as Pokémon Go integrate physical locations into gameplay, creating a hybrid digital-physical experience. The paper explores the implications of geolocation-based games for urban planning, public space use, and social interaction, considering both the positive and negative effects of blending virtual experiences with real-world environments. It also addresses ethical concerns regarding data privacy, surveillance, and the potential for gamifying everyday spaces in ways that affect public life.</p> <a href="https://blog-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/7508196234" 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="Exploring the Role of Scarcity in Driving Virtual Goods Demand" title="Exploring the Role of Scarcity in Driving Virtual Goods Demand" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Jacqueline Foster</strong> <span>2025-02-06 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-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/0873145629"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/18.jpg" alt="The Application of Non-Fungible Tokens for Dynamic Game Content Ownership" title="The Application of Non-Fungible Tokens for Dynamic Game Content Ownership" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-0873145629.mit-edu.top/post/0873145629/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-06</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-819999001401.mit-edu.top/post/0873145629">The Application of Non-Fungible Tokens for Dynamic Game Content Ownership</a></h2> <p class="info">This study explores the economic implications of in-game microtransactions within mobile games, focusing on their effects on user behavior and virtual market dynamics. The research investigates how the implementation of microtransactions, including loot boxes, subscriptions, and cosmetic purchases, influences player engagement, game retention, and overall spending patterns. By drawing on theories of consumer behavior, behavioral economics, and market structure, the paper analyzes how mobile game developers create virtual economies that mimic real-world market forces.
