Educational video game buffs could work with many different genres.

Below is a chart with some examples of power-ups, buffs, abilities, etc.

The chart shows how a student who can answer difficult questions will be much stronger in the game than a student who can only answer easier questions.

Above are a few examples of game genres that might be suitable for this purpose:

  • Racing: Racing games could be used to reward students for their progress in a particular subject by allowing them to unlock new power-ups as they progress. Students could unlock boosts or offensive or defensive abilities. They could also unlock new tracks or vehicles in the game, representing their increased knowledge and mastery of the material.

  • RPG (Role-playing game): RPG games often involve character progression and customization, which could be used to reward students for their progress in a particular subject. For example, students could earn points or rewards that allow them to unlock new abilities or gear for their character.

  • FPS (First-person shooter): FPS games could be used to reward students for their progress in a particular subject by allowing them to unlock new weapons or abilities as they progress. For example, students could earn new weapons or abilities in the game, representing their increased knowledge and mastery of the material.

Many game genres could potentially work well with the idea of using video games as a way to reward students for their knowledge and abilities.

Ultimately, the most suitable game genres will depend on the specific learning goals and the preferences of the students.
