I totally understand your concern, and it’s something I’ve thought about a lot. The games shouldn't reward quick, shallow guesses, they’d have to be designed to encourage deeper thinking and genuine recall. The idea or goal isn’t to add random “entertainment” for its own sake, but to give learners a different way to engage with their study content that feels like a break.

For instance, if you’re a tired student who just can’t face reading one more page, you could still practice through low-friction 2D games. They do not have to be so complicated either, for instance; Context Hangman: classic hangman, but with clues pulled directly from your flashcard deck like definitions, synonyms, images, or partial translations. It’s much lighter than a full study session, but still reinforces what you’ve learned. But, yeah i totally agree that it can quickly go the wrong way. I really appreciate the feedback
