The term gamification had come a long way since 2003, when it had a mere presence. And as we all can see, years later, gamification is everywhere. And the future of gamification looks bright!

Gamification has a variety of titles, ranging from behavioral design to engagement-focused experience. It is the practice of applying game design features and ideas to non-game situations. In other words, it is a set of actions and procedures that use or utilize the features of game elements to solve problems. Gamification has become a strategic management tool rather than a simple solution of game-based design characteristics.

2019 brought about significant developments all around the world. Because of Covid-19, the abrupt and global change of events and gatherings was one of them. In-person started happening over shared screens, and the conversation’s focus shifted. Everyone had to adjust, which provided a significant challenge, particularly for businesses that rely on sales and events. As the event planners faced the extra task of replicating the excitement and relationships that come with attending an in-person conference, businesses have turned to gamification to help them stand out in virtual events.

Gamification is integral to most mobile apps, intranets, learning management systems, and e-learning platforms. Mobile applications make information more accessible and convenient to use. We all know games are intriguing, and the users get thrilled to complete a challenge. However, businesses have a difficult time updating them frequently.

Thus, gamification helps keep users entertained and motivated to reach that milestone.

What Will Gamification Look Like in the Future?

The future of Gamification could be a strategic management instrument rather than a simple solution of game-based design features.

Gamification will be about how we think, collaborate, and co-create a different way of learning and building a community.

How will Gamification have changed?

Gamification’s development has been dominated by technology and gameful design, but now it’s evolving into a more substantial science backed by rigorous research. Specifically, these Theories and frameworks can be applied across various applications. Hence, this symbolizes a shift in focus from short-term solutions to long-term strategic growth.

How Will Gamification Affect People’s Lives?

Strategically focused Gamification will count less on behavioral design features and more on building human agency, autonomy, and capability. It means that we empower people in a meaningful way rather than nudge, push, entice, and reward. The latter makes people happier about the current system. It doesn’t empower them to change it.

Relationship Between Gamification and Innovation

Gamification has furnished an innovative approach to existing solutions. However, it is limited in developing creative outcomes that could drive paradigm shifts and problem-solving. This is a subtle but essential distinction.

Hence, the most influential (social, economic, environmental) challenges we face are those demanding systemic change and managing complexity. This will demand a different type of Gamification than we understand.

Conclusion

The usage of Gamification is increasing each year extensively, and as time progresses, you will see it being integrated with marketing strategies all around. If done right, gamification can bring about a tremendous change in your business irrespective of its size and can create magic!

Focus on adding value and not just adding something fun that is irrelevant and pointless. If you can not create an engaging, entertaining, and memorable experience, there will be no results.
