people more difficult and complicated. One of results of this development is the opening of online gaming
through the internet which has become addictive and one of the widely used leisure activities by many
people and teenagers. Online gaming is a technology rather than a genre; a mechanism for connecting
players together rather than a particular pattern of game play. Online games are played over some form of
computer network, now typically on the Internet

cases, online games are freeware programs that can be used for an unlimited time and
are available for free.

usage of the game leads to different effects for each individual. Childhood upbringings,
