According to a May 2021 survey of both gamers and non-gamers worldwide, 49 percent of global respondents used the word "fun" to describe video games. More than 50 percent of gamers and non-gamers based in China found video games to be "relaxing," while only 37 percent deemed them as "addictive." Inclusivity does not appear to be a prominent word associated with video games, with only two among the countries and regions surveyed reporting more than ten percent of respondents using the word "inclusive" to describe video games.
