Escapism is an incredible phenomenon. To delve into recreational pursuits can both serve as a form of relaxation and an alternative way to stimulate the mind. In the enclosing contexts of the Covid-19 pandemic, people have turned books, TV, indoor exercise, and gaming to feed such stimulation. The latter has had a considerable impact on the overall digital industry in recent years.

From a purely mobile perspective, gaming has been on a consistent boom. According to a research report from Allied Market, Games made 72% of all app-store spending in 2019. With the same report citing that consumers spend an average of 3 hours and 40 minutes on their phones a day, the conditions have seemingly always appeared ripe for synergy between Mobile Billing and Mobile Gaming. The 2020 Covid-19 context has seemed to exemplify this; for instance gaming downloads increased by 24% from February to March, reaching the height of 5.1 billion downloads.
