theories to the analysis of in-game purchasing behavior in mobile games, exploring how psychological factors such as loss aversion, framing effects, and the endowment effect influence players' spending decisions. The study investigates the role of game design in encouraging or discouraging spending behavior, particularly within free-to-play models that rely on microtransactions. The paper examines how developers use pricing strategies, scarcity mechanisms, and rewards to motivate players to make purchases, and how these strategies impact player satisfaction, long-term retention, and overall game profitability. The research also considers the ethical concerns associated with in-game purchases, particularly in relation to vulnerable players.</p> <a href="https://blog-856146511044.mit-edu.top/post/7805134962" 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="Quantum Computing in Mobile Gaming: Opportunities and Challenges" title="Quantum Computing in Mobile Gaming: Opportunities and Challenges" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Rebecca Cook</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-856146511044.mit-edu.top/post/0863457129"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/3.jpg" alt="Exploring Cultural Differences in Game Mechanics Preferences Across Global Mobile Game Markets" title="Exploring Cultural Differences in Game Mechanics Preferences Across Global Mobile Game Markets" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-0863457129.mit-edu.top/post/0863457129/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-06</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-856146511044.mit-edu.top/post/0863457129">Exploring Cultural Differences in Game Mechanics Preferences Across Global Mobile Game Markets</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.
