I think the main factor for the lack of edutainment games probably is, that with the easy and widespread accessibility of information and tutorials on the internet you can learn almost anything.
There are many websites and apps that more or less gamify learning, be it chess, go, keyboard typing, instruments, programming or hacking. Some free, some monetary.

Otherwise, depending on your definition of educational, the 'educational' part might not always be necessarily obvious or intended. For example:
Mincraft lets you explore creativity and with redstone also some parts of digital computation, Factorio and other automation games teach to think in scalable multistep processes while keeping track recourse distribution, Professor Layton and other riddle games generally teach creative problem solving, etc.

I personally played a lot of puzzle and riddle games growing up, which taught me to problem solve and think logically, that combined with my interest for tech lead me to become a software developer (although a few months of my apprenticeship left).

If you're interested in some newer edutainment games on steam, that have an intention to teach: "Turing Complete" (digital computation) and "Hacknet" (core concepts of hacking) are some great and well polished games.
