State of the art on the conceptual modeling of serious games through a systematic mapping of the literature

Serious games are those whose objective is to stimulate learning or the acquisition of knowledge a skill. Currently, there trend in market towards generation this type games. Given importance conceptualizing domain problem and its solution, paper presents results systematic mapping literature, Systematic Mapping Study (SMS), with purpose identifying state art discovering existing contributions regarding conceptual modeling serious A search was carried out Scopus, IEEE Xplore ACM digital libraries from January 2010 June 2021. Of total 558 articles identified, 31 primary studies were analyzed. It evidenced that use UML prevails for games, mainly class activity diagrams, together other languages ​​such as UP4EG, DSML, Deterministic Finite Automaton (DFA), Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) Fuzzy Inference Systems (FIS). Thirty percent propose framework another 30% development methodology. Most these frameworks do not specify how perform modeling.
