Gamification is applied in different information systems to motivate the users and make their experience with the system richer and more engaging. Gamification employed in e-guides aims at enhancing the process of visiting a tourist attraction. Even though each tourist attraction is unique and requires an individual gamification scheme, similarities in the components and procedures used to develop such schemes led to the development of a generic e-guide gamification framework. One of its main principles is to store the gamification rules as a content separate from the engine to process them. This way, the rules can be easily edited by subject matter experts. This paper describes a visual rule editor developed to facilitate this process.

“…For this purpose, a common notation of gamification rules for e-guides has to be used, and such notation has been proposed [7]. Although, the textual notation it uses was designed for readability, in the course of implementation of the BalticMuseums: Love IT!…”

“…While GaML relies on the external (gamified) system to identify events that are relevant for triggering the gamification rules before exposing them, the notation for the representation of events and rules proposed in [10] makes it a part of the rule specification. The only requirement for the gamified system is, therefore, to produce a standardized stream of communications exposing all the potentially relevant, possibly low-level events happening therein.…”

GEdIL—Gamified Education Interoperability Language

The paper introduces Gamified Education Interoperability Language (GEdIL), designed as a means to represent the set of gamification concepts and rules applied to courses and exercises separately from their actual educational content. This way, GEdIL allows not only for an easy yet effective specification of gamification schemes for educational purposes, but also sharing them among instructors and reusing in various courses. GEdIL is published as an open format, independent from any commercial vendor, and supported with dedicated open-source software.

“…Note, though, the special cases of GSt and GRS. Both can be considered to be data sets: a list of attributes that define the game state in the case of GSt and a list of rule definitions specified in a general-purpose or domain-specific language (see [26] for an example of such a specialized language) in the case of GRS. As such, they could be made available in whole as web resources, however a much more convenient and secure solution is to provide an access to their respective elements via a web service offering four basic types of operation (create/read/update/delete).…”

“…The proof of concept for the architecture is provided by the cloud-based service for gamification of e-guides [27], which uses the event and rule definition scheme described in work [26]. While the developed system has successfully passed various types of tests in different simulated environments, the real-world verification will start after the e-guides which are currently being developed within the framework of the BalticMuseums: Love IT!…”

The paper addresses the issues of implementing e-guide-based gamification systems for tourist attractions by proposing a dispersed gamification system architecture in which its respective functional aspects are handled by multiple web services with various scopes of responsibility. The features provided by the proposed architecture are successfully matched to tourist attraction requirements identified during development of an e-guide gamification system for an international consortium of tourist attractions. The key contributions of the paper are: the new definition of gamification system extending beyond the concept of a set of game-based rules and including the information technology components necessary to implement it; mapping the abstract gamification system model into the domain of tourist attraction gamification and the analysis of advantages and disadvantages of various organizations of e-guide gamification systems; the introduction of a new, dispersed architecture of e-guide gamification system that addresses the identified needs of tourist attractions.
