One trend in the market is artificial intelligence-empowered educational games. These games provide teachers a useful medium to teach educational concepts in an interactive and engaging manner. Such a method not only generates curiosity but also motivates through reward points, badgers and levels. Vendors are incorporating features of artificial intelligence in games to enhance the interactivity element.

These games embody the adaptive learning feature so that students can be given frequent and timely suggestions for a guided learning experience. These games improvise adaptive learning features while deploying machine learning, a form of artificial intelligence.
