Video game development gains a share as the fastest growing industries in the digital technologies and today it has become one of the most preferred activities especially by young people. However, when this activity begins to turn into an addiction, there are many negative effects that could possibly occur on individuals. This study was carried out in small residential areas close to the centre of Bursa City in order to measure gaming habits and addiction levels of the residents. In this study, the survey method was used and the sample of the study consisted of 182 women and 218 men with a total of 400 participants living in rural areas. The SPSS 25.0 package program was used for the analysis. In the first part of the game consciousness questionnaire, four questions were asked to determine the demographic characteristics of the participants and five questions were asked to determine the playing game characteristics of the participants. In the second part, in order to determine the effects of playing games and to observe the changes in individuals after playing the game, fourteen questions were asked. The data obtained from the analysis were analyzed in four subgroups. As a result; the daily internet usage of the participants was 4 hours (27.3%) and the playing time was 1-2 hours (58%). The most preferred type of games for the individuals playing games is battle games, while the most preferred phone brand is Samsung. There is no significant difference between gender and game addiction level. Same with this, there is also no significant difference found between demographic factors (age, job and monthly income) and level of game addiction of the participants. When the game duration and the type of the game played daily with subgroups are analyzed, statistically significant differences occur. When the correlation between subgroups is examined, it can be said that there is a positive relationship.
