Gaming has been an activity that has accompanied human beings throughout their lives, it is fundamental in the evolutionary process, and an essential element in the integral development of children, providing them with unlimited potential for meaningful experience through play, where they, create, curiosity, think, and interact with their environment. Gamification is one of the educational techniques that increase motivation and engagement, taking into account learners today grew up with digital technologies and require new learning styles according to their interests and needs as digital natives.
After several years of studies analysing successful games that engage people and motivate them to keep playing, Chou (2014) created the Octalysis model and represented it in an octagon and presents the 8 main drivers of motivation. This paper shows a theoretical review of gamification and its differences with game-based learning and the octalysis framework as the technique that uses game elements and game design in non-game contexts focused on Behavioural design since it activates the motivation to take action to achieve the goals established.
