@futurebird What I haven't read in the replies so far & catering to educators specifically:
- Good games are excellent at feedback and making learning fun. Even very complex matters/routines can be broken down, varied, spaced out and thus conveyed more easily.
- Alibis, scenarios & a magic circle can help with that.
- Also, games have been the largest cultural industry by far now for a while now. Understanding games will help you understand broader culture e.g. references, memes (think: "NPC").

Our "faculty newsletter" has a running column called "tech tips" and I'd like to write a short article about video games.
