Certainly with the rise of rapid e-Learning tools and the increase in SME-published content well start to see an increase in the frequency of updates to e-Learning material.

I suppose these types of games may actually add to the learning experience by providing repetition of learning points, but to call these games immersive or addictive?

Use multiple representations to provide the learner with multiple ways of accessing the information: visual or auditory. From the CFT vantage, multiple representations is not about providing the same information in a different format (the learning styles approach), but rather presenting different perspectives on that information.
