The Case for Competitive Mobile Gaming

As humans, we are wired for connection & have a desire to belong. We thrive in community & often come together around a shared passion, as well as the enjoyment of competition & contest. The widespread success of professional sports illustrates this clearly, & the rise of esports demonstrates how our nature assets itself as we explore other forms of entertainment. As game developers, we can benefit from organized competition, using it to drive engagement & foster strong communities.
