FAQs

  • What is this course about?

    This course is about understanding and applying gamification techniques in non-game contexts to enhance user engagement, motivation, and experience. You'll explore the psychology behind gamification, learn how to design meaningful interactions, and discover practical strategies to implement gamification ethically and effectively.

  • Why do I need to take this course?

    As a designer, this course will equip you with essential gamification skills to create more engaging and user-centric experiences. You'll learn how to motivate users, retain their interest, and design interactions that resonate deeply with them. For other roles on a team, such as project managers or marketing professionals, this course provides valuable insights into how gamification can enhance product appeal, drive user engagement, and support your overall project goals, all explained in straightforward, accessible terms.

  • What skill level do I need to get started?

    This is an advanced course. Before exploring gamification, students should have a solid understanding of UX design. We recommend completing the UX Design Foundations course for an introduction to user psychology. Additionally, exploring UX Research and UX Design Psychology will provide a strong foundation. However, if you're taking this course for general knowledge and you don't have a design role—for example, if you're a project manager or marketing professional—this course is written in simple terms that you'll understand.

  • What are the pricing options for this course?

    For new learners, the first level of each course is available free of charge! This allows you to experience the course without any initial investment.


    However, if you're seeking a deeper and more comprehensive learning journey, we recommend our Pro Membership. With this subscription, you gain full access to all our courses, which includes additional lessons, engaging design challenges, and thorough assessments.

    Additionally, Pro Membership entitles you to receive a certificate upon completion of a course and personalized feedback from experts for all your challenge submissions. To explore the pricing details and find the best plan for your learning needs, please visit our pricing page.
