THE PROBLEM AND IT”S BACKGROUND

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The introduction gives the reader the beginning of the piece of thread so they can follow

it.

A mobile game is a game played on a feature phone, smartphone/tablet, smartwatch, PDA,

portable media player or graphing calculator. The earliest known game on a mobile phone

was a Tetris variant on the Hagenuk MT-2000.

Nokia launched the very successful Snake. Snake (and its variants), that was preinstalled

in most mobile devices manufactured by Nokia, has since become one of the most played

games and is found on more than 350 million devices worldwide. A variant of the Snake

game for the Nokia 6110, using the infrared port, was also the first two-player game for

mobile phones.

Today, mobile games are usually downloaded from app stores as well as from mobile

operator's portals, but in some cases are also preloaded in the handheld devices by the OEM

or by the mobile operator when purchased, via infrared connection, Bluetooth, memory

card or side loaded onto the handset with a cable.

The past few years have seen the video game industry facing some major changes in terms

of products, prices and income. Specifically, these have been characterized by the rise of

the mobile game. While early mobile games were simplistic and difficult to access, modern

games take full advantage of portable technologies like smart phones and tablets. They

have improved dramatically in terms of graphics and mechanics, span many genres, and

target very broad audiences. As Polygon’s video game staff reported in their State of the

Industry series, “Just about anyone with a phone, be it Android, iOS or BlackBerry, has

played a game at one time or another. Mobile gaming is undoubtedly on an upswing with

every year bringing new trends and changes to the marketplace”.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

LITERATURE

FOREIGN STUDIES

International Studies (IS) generally refers to the specific university degrees and courses

which are concerned with the study of 'the major political, economic, social, and cultural

issues that dominate the international agenda.

Gaming applications have become one of the main entertainment features on smart phones,

and this could be potentially problematic in terms of dangerous, prohibited, and dependent

use among a minority of individuals. A cross-national study was conducted in Belgium and

Finland. The aim was to examine the relationship between gaming on smart phones and

self-perceived problematic smart phone use via an online survey to ascertain potential

predictors.

LOCAL STUDIES

Local history is the study of history in a geographically local context and it often

concentrates on the local community. ... Local history is often documented by local

historical societies or groups that form to preserve a local historic building or other historic

site.

As the world nowadays is developing with advanced technology, the old school

thing was forgotten by the new generation. There are several improper habits and

behavior with this development which the researcher finds in a study on online game

FOREGN LITERATURE

Foreign literature studies concerns the comprehensive research of literature in the

language of the country it was written in that includes the study of the regional and

historical circumstances in which it was written.

As of today, most people relate online games to low academic performance.

Through the years, studies have yielded different results. Some of them say that they are

co-related when some say that they are not. According to Anderson and Dill, there is a

negative correlation between the two. Thus, meaning that there is no relation between the

number of hours played by a player and his grades. At times, the students defend the games

they are playing by saying that they do learn something from it. A paper from EDUCAUSE

backs these students up by suggesting that the faculty learn and know about these games

so as to help students in class learning experience (Hitch and Duncan).

LOCAL LITERATURE

Local literature is an informative booklet or other means of information that informs people

about the local environment.

Some of us may make a statement that addiction of playing video game is one of the

modern- day psychological disorders and some of us are disagree with that statement.

Based on the research done by the America Psychiatrist Association (APA) conclude that

addiction of playing video game is not mental disorder due to the insufficient evidence to

include it as an official mental disorder. However, proposed criteria for "Internet Gaming

Disorder" are included in Section 3, Conditions for Further Study.
