What are the benefits of simulation games? Simulation games have many benifits! They enable engagement through wonderful learning activities, some of which may otherwise be difficult, dangerous, expensive, or impractical to use in a classroom. A good simulation game makes someone choose and make decisions. This builds decision making and independence. The game would also allow the user to mess up, and learn from the mistakes they made. Even more so, simulation games broaden learners' exposure to different people, opinions, perspectives, lifestyles, etc. The also encourage collaboration, team effort, support, and game discussion! Sims put the end user in the role of decision-making and push players through hard challenges. Some other learning benefits of simulation games are improvement in the metacognition and mental models, strategic thinking, insight, improved motor skills, and development of analytical and spatial skill, iconic skills, visual selective attention, computer skills etc. (Pillay et al. 1999; Kirriemuir 2002; Ko 2002; Green and Bavelier 2003).
