In this review of literature, the authors identified over 300 articles whose descriptions related to video games and academic achievement. They found some evidence for the effects of video games on language learning, history, and physical education, but little support for the academic value of video games in science and math. They recommend separating simulations from games and refocusing the question onto the situated nature of game-player-context interactions, including meta-game social collaborative elements.
