  • Abstract
    Since the platform infrastructure for mobile games have been widely and firmly established, mobile game´s differences could be largely made by game design. Designing games for enhancing gamers´ flow experience could win gamers´ loyalty, and thus increase the game developer´s competitiveness. This research explores design factors to achieve that, and find that making gamer feel power and control, configurable game character, functions of pause and help, and secure scoring system are more effective among other design factors.
