A classification scheme for serious games has been developed based on two different approaches: one based on a process framework, the other one based on a game genome approach. Both are applied on a number of known serious games with the objective to identify uncovered areas and gaps. These gaps represent new opportunities for the application of serious games which has not yet been realized. References (

Serious games (SGs), the confluence of e-learning and videogames, have been developing very fast these past years. Indeed, SGs combine aspects of tutoring, teaching, training, communication and information, with entertainment elements derived from videogames, in order to capture people's attention for purposes that go beyond pure entertainment. However, the creation of a SG for educational purposes and professional training is a very time-consuming and expensive process. The challenge is to comb

Gameplay, the resulting dynamic flow of events, is fascinating: this is like execution of an algorithm, where elementary actions are defined by game rules, but the logic, the flow
