June has been the month that my children look forward to every year, as this is when we usually travel to visit my large family in Australia to spend the school holidays.

Making Games More Inclusive And Social

As the pandemic continues to complicate the way we are celebrating our children’s much-needed break, I can relate to what parents with young children and those whose families are based overseas are feeling right now: We miss our loved ones, but we are well aware that their safety is our utmost priority. At the same time, we are struggling to balance our work and family life, as well as finding a me-time to unwind.

It is heartening for me to know that I have a life partner who always has my back and is supportive of my career as CEO of a fast-growing startup (storms.com). However, I do feel that I have a shared responsibility to find solutions that help many people out there who are either stuck at their home or are running out of ideas on how we can keep our children entertained with COVID-19 friendly activities.

I am of the belief that the gaming industry can play a part in addressing this challenge by making games more inclusive and social.

BONDING THROUGH EASY TO PLAY GAMES

Sharing the same hobby as your young children might sound like a utopia, but here’s the reality: there are games out there that can entertain people of all ages. These games are called ‘hypercasual games’.
