The educational game scene likely deserves some of the criticism that gets leveled its way. Taking a bunch of facts and jamming them into a tired trivia or card game format isn\u2019t good game design, and whether your potential players are kids or adults, they\u2019re sure to see through the ruse. Fortunately, recent years have seen a surge of excellent releases that treat educational elements like any other potential theme, and build a great design around that concept.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re a teacher or parent, the games below are ideal for young people who learn best with supplementary game experiences. But in choosing the titles to select for this article, I\u2019ve also tried hard to only include games that I\u2019d happily recommend to any adult gaming group as well \u2013 stuff that is fun enough to come out on any game night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve also steered away from the wealth of clever releases that teach in an abstract way about strategic thinking, logic, or critical thinking; while those skills are eminently valuable to anyone, the focus here is on games with discrete subject themes like math or history.<\/p>\n
