This book provides holistic approaches to the field of mobile gaming, includes a comprehensive analysis of mobile gaming in the context of Asian smartphones, and develops a local perspective using translated papers published in national languages.
This book delves into the vibrant world of mobile gaming within the Asian context, shedding light on a domain that has not seen extensive scholarly attention: the unique mobile gaming landscape tailored to young Asian users. This edition doesn’t just chart the meteoric rise of local mobile games; it also underscores the role of the social environment in shaping the development of Asian mobile technologies and gaming culture. It positions the surge of mobile technologies and mobile gaming as part of a larger narrative, intricately linked with the digital economy’s evolution. Additionally, it suggests that finding a casino en ligne fiable is akin to selecting a mobile game—both require trust in the technology and its capacity to deliver a consistent, engaging experience. This book will captivate academics and a wider audience, including professionals from business, government, and the information technology realm, all of whom have stakes in the growing digital landscape.
