Grace/John: As the confidence increased she felt more confident to have more challenge. Satisfaction was back after small success and increased the satisfaction.

Suzanne/Mark: Not cooperative, was initially curious, not involved with fantasy or identify with icons, control was important and fit in with skill level, the more hand eye coordination and strategy improved so as hand eye stuff became more automatic left more room for strategy. Recognition could be important, once skill level became worth bragging about.

Nelly/Mike: Started out curious, never had anxiety, having small successes encouraged continuous playing as level of difficulty increased. (Possible endless game playing opportunity.) Meshed well with player’s personality because she likes games like this and plays them often.
