Abstract: This study proposes a method for estimating the size of mobile game application. UML Point presents rules to be mapped to UML model from the mobile game requirements. Methods/statistical analysis: This study provides specification of UML model to be adapted in the mobile game design. In addition to model the requirements, this study also introduces UML stereotypes for grouping certain elements in mobile game. We present mapping rules for measure the functional size of mobile game using IFPUG Function point analysis and provide a case study to show the possibility the proposed method to be applied in mobile games. From the case study, the use of UML model and the proposed stereotype were found useful in presenting the requirements. The results from the case study also support the claim that the proposed rules can be use in early estimation of mobile game application. Application/improvements: the improvements in this research involve the development of automated tool by directly exporting the UML game model to the tool for estimation process and conduct experiment for validation.
