In the report, the most preferred game mechanics of mobile players are listed as follows: Dragging, Swerving, Tapping, Aiming, Drawing, Timing, Merging, Rising/Falling, and Growing.

The fact that mobile players mostly prefer the dragging mechanic in games is an indication that the mechanic is quite comfortable and easy to apply. Game mechanics are one of the most important issues that developers need to consider for a game development process, as mobile gamers need to get used to the game’s mechanics before they can enjoy a game.

Thanks to the mobile game technology that is developing a little more every day, mobile game graphics have started to become more realistic like PC and console games graphics. For this reason, we can clearly see that players no longer prefer two-dimensional (2D) games as much as three-dimensional (3D) games. While 92.7% of mobile gamers prefer three-dimensional mobile games, only 7.3% prefer two-dimensional games.
