| Description | The global mobile game industry expects spectacular growth in the coming years. Ubiquitous entertainment has been drawing much attention from the "global youth" segment, which seeks innovative, efficient, and enjoyable pastimes.

This study aims to fill this gap, by examining the factors influencing mobile game adoption in the U.S.A., Japan, Spain and the Czech Republic. |
