RESPONSIBLE PLAY
Gaming is an incredible medium for entertainment, socialization, and challenge. However, it is important to maintain a healthy balance. We advocate for responsible gaming habits.
1. Setting Boundaries
- Time Limits: Set strict schedules for your gaming sessions and take frequent breaks. We recommend a 15-minute break every 2 hours.
- Financial Limits: Never spend money on microtransactions or gacha mechanics that you cannot afford to lose. Treat it as an entertainment expense, not an investment.
- Physical Health: Maintain proper posture, stay hydrated, and ensure you get adequate sleep.
2. Recognizing the Signs
If gaming is interfering with your daily life, relationships, or work, it may be time to step back. Signs include irritability when not playing, lying about time spent gaming, and neglecting personal hygiene or responsibilities.
3. Seeking Help
If you or someone you know is struggling with gaming addiction or gambling mechanics within games, please reach out to local support services in Australia or New Zealand.
