about the impact of mobile games to on youth. First of all, A mobile game is a
game that can be played on any portable devices such as mobile phone and
portable console. And Nowadays, it’s seems like nearly all the every youth people
have mobile devices. Also Now you may ask, what is youth?
According to UN definition (ref : https://www.un.org/esa/socdev/documents/youth/fact-sheets/youth-definition.pdf,
Youth people is the people in age between childhood and adult, more specifically
between is persons between the ages 15 and 24 years old. This people are from
middle school and university. Because of that, they still have a lot of extra time and
tends to seek entertainment. Nowadays These day mobile games are the major
entertainment for youth people. Mobile games are popular because you can play

negative impact that happened is addiction. Addictions is something that makes
you want to do, eat, or think it non-stop. An addiction It can cause change of
lifestyle to a much worse lifestyle and could get in the way of you being a

Singapore are addicted to the internet and gaming.
The impact of mobile games to youth has been studied and the results
revealed that youth people with Same like Internet addiction disorder, Mobile
game addiction, makes youth which suffer from this disorder, has higher risk of
depression, social anxiety and loneliness. This was because too much time on
games and not socializing.

games may get a small boost to their reading skills. Another good thing about
games is Problem solving and Creativity. Some games can be mindless, like classic
game space invaders but there are many others like mysteries, puzzles and
managing virtual cities, empires, and more that have problems that kids can solve
on their own. Mobile games can also build youth people’s creativity and
imagination. Some youth And Nowadays, there are people that make video games
into a career, for example a 16 year old winner of the first Fortnite World Cup won
$3 million USD. The other 99 solo finalists won $50,000USD to $1.8 million each.
So the impact of mobile games to youth are in both side, good and bad. It can
train your imagination and many other positive skills. But in the other side too
much of it can cause addiction and even several bad impact to your health. So in
our youth, we must manage our time for more positive activity such as Exercise,
Socialize, Hobbies, try new activities to know what you want to be when you are
older, and many others. But we can still have good and healthy amount of time for
mobile games as entertainment to relieve our stress. Thanks for listening to my
