Sound. It makes or breaks your flash game … take this example I found recently … if you play with the speakers off it’s much less satisfying than with audio … or is it me?

There’s something to be said about certain sound octaves in games making them more addictive … just look at slot machines, they use a combination of notes known to keep you playing …

I imagine there is a white/research paper or presentation somewhere about this.
