Abstract

In this paper, we present a study that compares tilt and touch-screen interaction in a 2D iPhone game for children. The trials involved 58 children from 8 to 10 years old. The results showed that the children found touch-screen interaction easier. With regard to engagement and fun, no significant differences were found between the two interaction methods. However, differences between boys and girls were found with the score given to the game. Another interesting result is that the children had no preferred interaction method.
