Abstract
Most of the games we see today have some concept of time progression. For real-time games, the time progression and decisions are usually measuring and taken in a fraction of a second. Time constraints are also an essential component of game and gamification development. Timings in games and gamification projects stimulate creative thinking, best shots on timings, smart decision-making , and quick outcomes. This chapter discusses the timings in games and gamification, the related theories, factors, implications, outcomes, and advantages.
