UniSA researchers are undertaking a major study to better understand how and why parents play video games, and they’re calling on Australian mums and dads to share their gaming experiences.
More than 3 billion people around the world play video games on their smartphone, console or computer, with the Australian video game industry now worth over $220 million, doubling in value since 2016.
