Abstract

In recent years, cell phones have become an important position for the development of games due to their portability, interactivity and communication, and the resulting space of mobile games has become a mental space and "second living space" for players. This paper further explores the philosophical nature of the space constructed by mobile games and the relevance of the space
constructed by mobile games to the real society, citing Henri Lefebvre’s spatial theory. The virtual space of mobile games carries virtual social relations based on network information, and the increasing saturation of information makes it indexical in nature, so it is necessary to explore the guiding nature of mobile games brought by players with the viewpoint of pros and cons. In particular, it is important to clarify how traditional cultural elements to be integrated and symbiotic with mobile games.
