Very Interesting question Mr. Fathy; thanks for the invitation.

Honestly, I don't play internet games. Furthermore, I endorse answer given by Ms. dalal alharbi 

In fact, I'm not addicted to games and I use it very little, I use is the means of social communication, in addition to this site, which takes a lot of my time because of the very large number of notices and questions .

I'm not a gamer, so can't quite relate to this question.

Internet games are usually waste of time and we can not get any knowledge and skills. But you can get benefits by visiting some knowledge based websites and improve your abilities.

From a marketer's standpoint, online/internet gaming is so beneficial. It's amazing how many adverts you can fit into the little spaces just above the games or next to them in the white space. The game itself is a great marketing tool because once people play one game, they are more likely to download or play other games available from the company. As a marketer, you also have the ability to provide links to your products and that creates a larger client/customer base. Addictive internet games are not beneficial to the user because now you're spending time on your phone or on the computer basically wasting time, and I, myself, am guilty of playing games like Soda Crush and 1010! for an hour straight without even thinking about it. Now with KING Games, Inc., they are very smart. They have In App Purchases available that allow people to purchase more moves, lives, etc. This is more income for the company which allows them to hire more developers for other games. It's really a quite genius industry and they know it!

To be frank & truthful to you, i don't play internet games. However, games are a waste of time if they are recieved by the wrong target market or audince, on the hand if the games are received by the right market or target audience, they are beneficial to both the receiver & marketer.

Thanx for the invitation
