Women Over 30 Are The Most Avid Players of Mobile Games, Mocospace Study Says

No surprise here given the stereotype of moms playing Farmville on Facebook, but the most dedicated mobile gamers also tend to be women over 30, according to a new study from mobile gaming community MocoSpace. According to a survey of 15,000 MocoSpace members conducted in December, women over 30 played the most mobile games, with 27 percent spending three hours a day or more playing games on their mobile phones. By comparison half that number of women between the ages of 12 to 27 reported spending the same amount of time playing mobile games.

The survey also found that mobile gaming saw a big jump in popularity year-over-year, with 46 percent of MocoSpace members indicating they were spending more time playing mobile games this year as compared to last year.
