چکیده

Personality has an impact on user’s behaviour in information systems, and adaptive systems that model these features can provide better user experience.

In our project we explore user profiling options of computer games by examining how game features and personality traits affect user (player) engagement and game play. We designed a modular casual browser game which enables us to exhaustively study effects of different game mechanics on game play. We conducted an extensive study in which we collected data on several hundred game sessions. In this paper we describe our approach and present preliminary results.
