“…His opinion was similar to Malone and Lepper's findings [8][9] [10]: challenges, fantasy, curiosity and control are four common characteristics of digital games. Among these characteristics, challenges may be the core, because challenges can sustain players' interests [1]. As Rollings and Admans [11] mentioned, a game is one or more causally linked series of challenges in a simulated environment.…”

In schooling, ability difference among individuals is inevitable. High-ability students in a classroom always perform better, whereas low-ability students often perform worse. The stability of performance may hurt students' affects. However, students are engaged in games that they are playing. In most cases, they sometimes win and sometimes lose. This study terms such a property of games as "the fluidity of performance". Furthermore, this study aims to define the fluidity of performance, and to analyze it in an educational game, which may suggest further investigation.

“…Several studies have been carried out on game-based learning with an educational orientation, especially for a possible use in either helping learning the traditional classroom environment, or supporting teaching activities (Hsiao, 2007), with improving techniques like the multi level challenge system (Cheng et al, 2007). Other game-based learning systems were, for examples, VISOLE (Shang et al, 2007), AnswerMatching (Wu et al, 2007), Shadow Box (Sung et al, 2007), and Simulation Fish Tank (Tan and Biswas, 2007).…”

Most of research results show that the educational games are good to increase student's learning motivation in formal learning. This research reveals the project of designing and implementing a web-based educational game within a real corporate environment. It is amazing to find that what a real world company looks for is such a small and simple game. The game has been approved by the officer and used to provide to phone and face-to-face sales who have no minimum necessary knowledge of selling watercrafts insurance and have interest in using game-based learning mode instead of traditional PowerPoint presentation mode. The results show that the game mode's dispersion is quite high, showing a more volatile situation. Good news is, although the employees did not like the game itself, they are still willing to try the game, instead of the presentation, if offered.

Educational games have been widely developed and tested by many researchers. Most of results show that the educational games are good to increase student's learning motivation in formal learning. It seems quite workable, however, what kinds of game-based learning a business really want to see and want to use? This research reveals the project of designing and implementing a game-based learning system within a real corporate environment. After been through the tough process of finding a company willing to adopt the game for its on-the-job training and orientation as well as the negotiations, the legal issues and the extensive scrutiny, it's amazing to find that what a real world company asks for is such a small and simple game. The game has been approved by the officer and ready to provide to phone and face-to-face sales who have no minimum necessary knowledge of selling watercrafts insurance and have interest in using game-based learning mode instead of PowerPoint presentation mode. The officer mentioned that he was quite happy with the game.
