Abstract

Motivation has been observed to be crucial for learning success. In computer science education, new approaches for knowledge transfer that create more engagement by their users seem to be a desirable solution. This can be facilitated, inter alia, through business simulation games (BSG). Within this paper, a preliminary literature review is conducted to gather the first requirements for an extendable catalog that can be valid for various BSG. Many different generic success factors, best practices or established methods are identified in various publications providing promising approaches for deriving appropriate BSG requirements. The dominance of non-functional requirements is noticeable, whereas the majority of functional requirements possibly will not become determinable until it comes to the specific game design. Therefore, the publication at hand can be considered as preparatory work for a future BSG as a Service concept.
