Educational game (Education)
Educational games are projects in which users learn something while playing. This is usually done in a competitive mode or in an interactive-entertaining way. A person can be taught anything: from reading and typing to driving and hunting. Of course, the more complex the subject of learning, the lesser the effect of playing the game. After one game, a child will learn to read, while after another, they will only discover some interesting facts about proper hunting.
