There are bunch of ways video games can be good for you. Here are 8 reasons why. First, they can help with your decision-making. One particular game developer, Telltale games, makes games where you have to make decisions that can impact the story and sometimes it can be hard to what exact decisions to choose. Second, games can help you socialize. Some video games have online features where you can chat with other players. You are going to need something to talk with though. You can’t just speak to the screen so that’s why you would need a mic, but we aren’t talking about those. Third, problem-solving. A lot of video games have puzzles and little side quests where most likely you would have to solve puzzles. Sometimes they can be easy, hard, or in the middle. Sometimes they are unique in their different way. Fourth, is creativity. There are a bunch of video games that can help you be creative like building cities or making your community, heck even a whole planet. Fifth, games can distract you from stressful things going on in your life like maybe a family member passing away, but I won’t go deep into that topic. Sixth, games can teach you about jobs or events in history. There are a lot of games like these but most of them use a little bit of fiction in the historic games. Seventh, video games can improve your mood. Of course, there are a ton of games that can improve your mood or even decrease your mood. It depends on the genre you like. Finally, video games encourage teamwork. We call these games “co-op games.” They can be either local or online and usually in these games, you are supposed to work with the other player to solve puzzles and help each other to eventually make it to the end of the game. So, those are my 8 reasons why video games can be good for you.
