Are games a guilty pleasure or an unparalleled learning experience? The answer to this question may allow us to view games in a different light. All games are educational because our brains are always learning. We can choose games purely for their entertainment value (with a little bit of educational benefit) or choose games that help us succeed at life. The question is how valuable the gaming experience is to helping us improve our daily lives. We are gaining knowledge and we are gaining skills. The knowledge and skills we are learning from playing the game are transferrable to the real world.
