“…In this research, the proposed DSML is an extension of an existing DSML called Serious Game Logic and Structure Modeling Language (GLiSMo). GLiSMo is designed for the logic and the structure of an educational game [5], [39], [40]. The logic diagram describes the behavior of a serious game, and the diagram adopts the UML activity diagram.…”

Designing educational games is a complex task and needs collaboration between game developers and an educator. Domain-Specific Modeling Language (DSML) offers an approach to simplify the design activities of educational games and support the involvement of both game developers and educators. This paper presents an extension of Serious Game Logic and Structure Modeling Language (GLiSMo), a DSML that designs the logical and structural views of educational adventure games. The gap in the original GLiSMo is that it did not allow an educational game to be designed according to any learning theories. Furthermore, the original GLiSMo does not cover all concepts in the adventure genre. The authors intend to extend the original GLiSMo by adding the concepts of Flow Theory and concepts of the adventure genre to make it more expressive. The extended DSML is called FA-GLiSMo. The authors evaluated the expressiveness of FA-GLiSMo using Framework for Qualitative Assessment of DSLs (FQAD). The result shows that the expressiveness of FA-GLiSMo is still 'incomplete' due to the lack of clarity of semantics for several domain concepts. Improvements were performed, and the finalized FA-GLiSMo now has fifteen (15) concepts of the Logic diagram, nineteen (19) concepts of the Structure diagram, and a new diagram called the Flow diagram containing five (5) concepts of the Flow Theory. The authors also demonstrate in this paper the concrete syntax of FA-GLiSMo using the Tales of Monkey Island game as a case study.

“…This model does not impose the cognitive overload of learning a new design language to describe game designs that can be exported to XML files, and a game engine capable of interpreting those files and automatically generating a serious game, [27] & [28]. Finally, In [29] and [30] the authors used the Model-Driven Framework, since it allows geolocation based games to be edited and deployed in many places quickly. The core models and represents the structure of the game and its multimedia content (e.g.…”

This paper reviews the literature on automatic code generation of user-centered serious games. We decided to break the study in two parts: one study about serious games with model driven engineering, and another study about user-centered serious games. This paper presents an extension of a paper presented at CONISOFT 20 where a systematic review of 5 years old at the time of writing was presented exclusively. The systematic literature review conducted in this paper covers a decade of information from January 2012 to June 2022. The main objective is to know the literature that helps to mitigate the costs and time of software development in serious games. The overall conclusion is that there is still work to be done to combine serious user-centered games and automatic generation. This paper is a systematic review that identifies relevant publications and provides an overview of research areas and publication venues. In addition, Research perspectives were classified according to common objectives, techniques, and approaches. Finally, is presented point out challenges and opportunities for future research and development.

“…However, constructing a narrative from a limited database of place information has struggled to offer a coherent story, given the need to link the available data together in a natural and meaningful way (Tregel et al, 2017). Attempts to translate a narrative from one location to another, have included WeQuest (2011), and LAGATO's LeGAL (2019), which aimed to identify equivalent story sites with either comparable map features, or from available user reviews (Macvean et al, 2011;Ferreira et al, 2019). Such methods invariably affected the amount of walking involved, with each new site commonly also offering its own distinct atmosphere.…”
