Social network game for mobile devices

Abstract

Social network is the most popular platform where people socialize, stay in touch and keep themselves updated on the world. Although social networks are booming nowadays, access to the services from mobile devices is generally limited, especially for social games.

In our thesis, we will do research and try to create a sample social network game for iPhone named “Thirteen”. This game application allows players to connect and play against each other, play against an AI (Artificial Intelligent), share information over Facebook, gain score and submit to Apple Game Center Server. This document describes the main structure of the game, and provides instructions on how to embed Facebook and Apple Game Center functions into an iPhone application, as well as how to create an AI player for the game.
