Gamification is the use of mechanisms, elements and rules known from games (e.g. scoring, rankings, badges, rewards, tasks, challenges, etc.) in situations that are not related to them.
The aim of gamification is to motivate and increase involvement of people participating in various actions, e.g. education, marketing, sales, etc.
Examples of using gamification elements in different fields:
- Mobile apps that encourage physical activity by awarding points for completing certain exercises or walking a certain distance.
- Loyalty programmes in which customers collect points for making purchases and can redeem them for rewards or discounts.
- The use of gamification in training and courses, where game elements help participants to better absorb knowledge.
- In marketing – e.g. by organising competitions with prizes or engaging users in interactive advertising campaigns.
