Abstract

Techniques for recommending trending games to a user are described. For example, information regarding a first game played on a mobile phone is determined. The information includes the amount of time the first game is played or the number of times the first game was played on the mobile phone. A recommendation to play a second game having a common characteristic with the first game is received and displayed, based on such information and based on an increase in play of the second game by other people over a period of time. A user is enabled to play the second game based on determining that the mobile phone is in a defined geographical area, such as a geo-fenced region.
