Abstract

Game-based language learning has emerged as a promising approach to language learning activities. Despite its potential, concepts for implementing game-based language learning that emphasize player-to-player and player-to-game interactions have not been widely adopted. This study presents an educational game as a game-based language learning application that incorporates face-to-face interaction concepts and competitive game approaches to enhance player-to-player interaction. Additionally, the game utilizes a specially designed game controller to improve player-to-game interaction. The impact of the proposed educational game on the students' learning experience, gaming experience, and motivation was evaluated through a process involving 42 high school students (14 females and 28 males). The findings suggest that integrating concepts of face-to-face interaction in competitive game scenarios and the game controller design proposed in this study fosters social interactions among players, positively influencing students' learning experience, gaming experience, and motivation. Furthermore, the findings reveal that students prefer game controllers with microswitch buttons because they provide a physical feel that reduces errors during gameplay. This underscores the importance of ergonomic, easy-to-use game controller designs that minimize errors when playing educational games. By focusing on the interplay between player-to-player and player-to-game interactions, this study provides insight into designing interactive educational games that utilize interaction technology, particularly for language learning.
