Abstract

This study aims to develop a first-person adventure action game-Code Book© for history learning, and to explore learners’ learning performance and their flow state in the game. The present empirical research included 38 Taiwanese college students. The results showed that learners’ learning performance improved and they reached high flow state. In addition, no significant difference was found between male and female students in terms of their learning performance and flow state, suggesting that this game is suitable for learners of both genders.
