Reawakening the Past: The Power of Gamification in Preserving Cultural Heritage!
A new-generation approach to protecting our historical and cultural heritage: Gamification! In recent years, with the advancement of digital technologies, gamification has played a significant role in preserving cultural heritage and making it more accessible through tourism.
