Our 5-Step Gamification Design Process

We’re aware of the impact games and gamified experiences have on learning and satisfaction, and how immense that is from a modern learning perspective. Here’s our approach to corporate gamification, step by step:

1. Define the Problem

We spend a substantial amount of effort framing the business and the learning problem before touching game mechanics.

2. Build the Narrative

We give the problem structure by building a narrative around it and gathering the content.

3. Choose Learning Theories and Game Mechanics

We select learning theories and integrate them with game mechanics to bind the content together in a way that fits the narrative.

4. Prototype

We blend all of it into a visual, game-like experience with short feedback loops, producing a working prototype.

5. Playtest

We run thorough playtesting to identify and solve bugs and missing features before launch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Gamification is the practice of adding game elements, including leaderboards, challenges, badges, and points, to non-gaming educational programs to boost motivation and involvement. Our gamification eLearning programs use it as a layer on top of solid instructional design, not a replacement for it.
Yes, compliance eLearning gamification is one of our most common use cases. Scenario branching, role-based missions, and point-based quizzes work especially well for compliance and safety content because they keep learners engaged with material that's otherwise dry and repetitive. See our Compliance Training solutions for more.
In game-based learning, a complete game is the learning medium itself. Gamification adds game elements to otherwise traditional or digital learning to boost motivation; the learning content isn't a game, it just borrows game mechanics.
Progress bars, scoreboards, levels, interactive challenges, point-based quizzes, role-based missions, achievement badges, and scenario branching are chosen based on what keeps a specific audience engaged, not applied uniformly.
Through integration with your LMS or CRM, we track engagement heatmaps, performance ratings, and participation rates, and link learning indicators to job KPIs where feasible.
Depending on complexity, we use Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, Unity, and custom frameworks, depending on whatever the gamification eLearning platform requirements call for.
