How Far Can You Go Just to Play Your Favorite Mobile Game?

[SimplyD]

I have to wake up early in the morning, about 5:00 to pray then to exercise for 15-30 minutes. I also have to prepare myself to work then travel to work.

Yet despite that, I would sometimes whenever I can't control myself from playing my mobile game, I go to sleep at about 1:00 in the morning playing my favorite mobile game. Hubby would wake up seeing me beside him still playing and I would make a white lie that I can't sleep. Though, I am already actually sleepy but just want to play more and more. I only have 4 hours of sleep when I do that.

What about you? What do you do just to be able to play a game on your gadget?

I don't know, I think that I don't like to be like that with mobile games, but sometimes, when I discover a game and it is very good for me I can play it a lot of time, I remember that one time, when I first download the Plague inc. game for my mobile I had to go to class (I am a music teacher for kids) and I lose the time and I had to go there 3 pm, it was 3:30 pm and I wasn't ready for that stupid game.

I am not a fan of playing games on mobile, I don't enjoy the gameplay and the fun in playing, though I was crazy about playing GTA 5 and tried installing on my phone because I couldn't get the cd firsthand.

Mobile gaming has become the norm for me these days due to my crazy schedule. Sometimes I'll just slip in a battle on World Of Tanks Blitz during my lunch period. Or sometimes I'll get home at 10:00 and play until 2 in the morning.

Never really got into phone games besides playing clash of clans a couple of years back, would be nice to find a mobile game I just couldn't get off though, as it's portable haha

Even I am not a great fan of mobile games. The small screen is not really pleasing and is so bad for the eyes too. I prefer to spend the time doing something better.

You are funny. You get hooked on that game, making you unaware that it's your time to teach the kids. So, what did they say that you were late? Were they still in the classroom?

Darn I love to hate that game... It's so freakin hard to control... I'd rather play the game via pc...

I suppose it depends on the game we will be playing as to whether we like to play it on mobile or on the computer. I like playing a game through my mobile because it is handy and I can do it while lying in bed. So relaxing.

That's correct @SimplyD, some games are best played on other platforms because of the complexity of the control option. I also do love playing mobile games some are level up games and some are just time killers.

Well, the result of that day was that my headmaster had to teach the kids the time that I wasn't there, I have received the worst reprimand of my life, but I had to give them the class and I told the kids what happened and they laughed a lot.

So it went that way. You cannot blame your headmaster for being so angry. He was unprepared in teaching your class that's why. And I think, had he known why you were late, he would be so much angrier. :smile:

At least, you made the kids laugh when you told them about it. Just be sure they won't leak the reason to your headmaster. :smile:

Yes, I like those levels. Though, when I get stuck up in a certain level for many weeks, I uninstall it and install a new similar one. But it has to be with levels. The levels are what makes it addicting actually. What are your mobile games. I suppose they are those games that fight with someone online?

 

[Neiltarquin]

@SimplyD as of now, my games are mostly offline and all of them are tower defense type. The only Online game that I have is Clash of Clan. I deleted my other online games. I'm actually hooked with forum posting now.

I've never been so addicted to a mobile game that I would wake up early or got to bed late just to play it. I think the games are usually too shallow to be that addicting. A game that does have me staying up late and waking up early is Civilization. How can you got to bed when you keep telling yourself "Okay, one last turn then I'll go to sleep." after every turn?

So, we both have a common addiction - forum posting. :smile: That is why, I only have one game installed in my phone too. I have no more time for more games because I choose games that are easy to play. Besides, I enjoy forum posting like this than playing games. I play games when I am done with forum posting and when riding in a public transport going to and from the office. :smiley:

I can relate with you on the last sentence. That's what makes me awake at night, another turn then another until it's past midnight already.
But I must say, you have a control of yourself because you don't find games shallow and not addicting. Keep it up! That's the way it should be when playing games- not an addict to it that you just want to keep playing and playing.

It took me around a week of non-stop playing to get used to the controls. However, once you get used to the controls it really is much more convenient when you're able to play it whenever and whenever you want.

Actually, in most things and tasks, when you do it for the first time, it would be difficult. But as you keep doing it , you will get used to it and it would already be easy. But I think, he is just impatient in having to get used to the controls.
