For many people, video games are taken as a “waste of time”, and are considered to be a part-time hobby, a phase, for those who are passionate about it. Mixed opinions are natural, but most people never look at the other side of the sun, where the reality is, they develop our core life abilities. They foster skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and perseverance by engaging players in challenges that require thoughtful, strategic solutions. They develop our social abilities and expand our social range as well as prepare us for life-threatening situations. They are not just a form of entertainment, but a lesson, that teaches us that not everything that we see is what we perceive.
