•Difficult to draw the line between a game vs. the application of game elements to learning material (Deterding, 2011)
•Lack of control groups (van Gaalen, 2020)
•Lack of clarification studies and theory driven gamification (van Gaalen, 2020)

2) Applied to tools you already have access to 
3) Increased use of simulators & decreased cost/hour used (Kerfoot, 2014, Enter, 2015)
4) Demands active engagement 
5) Self directed learning

•Decreased intrinsic motivation (Quui, 2017)
•Add stress through competition which may decrease learning (Friedlander 2011)
•Time to develop well
•Requires student buy in
•Difficult to evaluate an individual(Friedlander 2011)
