Why Do People Play Mobile Games?

The increasing numbers of cell phone users has resulted in the rapidly growing themes related to cell phones, like ringtones, mobile games wallpapers, etc. about 35% of the clients who use cell phones (63 million people) play mobile games.

The popularity of these games has increased so much that now, the income from these games has surpassed the income from ringtone downloads as well as wallpaper downloads. Hence, this has become a great marketing strategy for the mobile manufacturers. Being convenient, portable and small, the presence of games in a mobile phone only adds to its popularity.

Addictive and entertaining, mobile games can keep the husbands busy while their wives shop. 27-year-old Dale Kang is a good example.
