As you plan and design your game app, consider characteristics that make a game engaging and addicting. For example, the game should be easy, fast-paced, and aesthetically pleasing. You may want to divide your game into levels that become more difficult over time or allow a user to earn points.

Make sure to consider monetization strategies as well. Common ways to make money with a mobile app include offering in-app purchases, ads, and premium versions.
