20 Quotes for Gamers to Help You Level Up

We think gamers get a bad rap.

Maybe it’s because people who aren’t into gaming just don’t get what it’s about. Maybe it’s because they live partially in an alternate reality that not everyone is experiencing. Or maybe it’s just because gaming isn’t for everyone.

But we think gaming is great. Games are full of adventure. They’re a chance to become a character who has personality traits and abilities that we may not have ourselves. They require problem solving and creativity to get past obstacles and move on to higher levels. Video games can even increase your fine motor skills and help you to become more persistent. Studies have shown all kinds of positive benefits to gaming that you might not expect. Adults who play video games might even be happier than other people!

But our favorite thing about video games is that they allow us to use our imagination and explore worlds that we might not have the opportunity to visit in real life. That’s pretty cool, if you ask us.
