Abstract: The aim of this presentation was to present the definitions of serious games and retro serious games, and to examine how they can be associated with learning. At the end of the presentation, the Mind'Up game developed by Orange Labs was presented to illustrate how learners could be led to discover the history of telecommunications. Mind'Up is a puzzle game that invites participants to search the Internet for answers. The aim of this approach is to encourage participants to make hypotheses by consulting resources. In this way, we move away from a simple quiz where participants mobilize their stocks of knowledge.
