The Rise Of Mobile Gaming Popularity

While many hard-core gamers would not like to admit playing on your mobile phone or tablet has been on the increase in recent years. It is a popular way that many people can play their games while on the move. And, you already have a phone, so why not play a game on it?

It is Cheap And Convenient

One of the biggest reasons that more and more people are flocking to downloading and playing games on their smartphones is because they can. It is easy to download a new game and start playing. And you would want to while you are waiting for the bus or just want to pass some time.

Smartphones have also advanced in terms of technology, and memory means that you can get a few high-quality games on your handy little device that fits in your pocket. We have come a long way from “Pong” and even “Snake” on the Nokia 3310. With the introduction of the touchscreen, mobile game developers had a chance to further expand not only what games you can play on the go but also how you can play them.

You can play them virtually, or horizontally adding to the gaming experience as well as the ease of use. Plus, the graphics can be something to marvel at depending on the game you download. And, the music has also come a very long way. Instead of the “beeps” and “boops”, you can hear soundtracks that can warn you of danger and get your blood pumping.

While it is convenient to have a full game on your phone, another reason why mobile gaming is skyrocketing is that the games are cheap or free. Consoles and gaming PCs can be extremely pricey if you are a hard-core gamer but if you are a casual one then playing on your smartphone can easily satisfy your need to game. You already most likely have a smartphone so you do not need to go out to get something to play on.

And the games are often cheaper too, and a lot of them are free. Although some of them may not be as polished or high-quality as you would like.

The Games

There are almost countless games on the Google App Store just waiting for you to download and try. Not only that, but there are different types of games from puzzles, slots, three across, and even action-adventure games such as survivals, or platformers. Even thebest new online casinos can have some of their slots and card games in mobile form.

And a lot of mobile games do not lack stories. Such as the popular, strange mystery storytelling game of “Rusty Lake.” The value of the games can depend on what you choose to play. As we mentioned there are games that are not as polished as they should be. However, you have nothing to lose since these games are free.

Plus, many mobile games do have loot boxes, but these are more of a suggestion than needed. However, one of the annoying things about free mobile games is that they have ads in them. This may get on your nerves if they are often. But, then again it is how many of the developers make their money. Oftentimes watching an ad can give you an award. Something to use in your game like extending your energy, or giving you a gift.

Will Mobile Game Surpass Consoles and PCs

While it is awesome to have a game on the go, mobile gaming cannot surpass consoles and PCs. It is a different market. Gaming PCs and consoles are designed to withstand playing high-quality games for those who are really into it. Mobile games are more for casual players who want something to do to pass the time. Mobile games are a nice addition to the gaming world. But, consoles and PCs will not be out of fashion or need. They essentially target different markets within the gaming world.
