This work presents a study about the use of games in the educational context. We sought,
through bibliographic research, to present relevant information regarding the use and benefits
of using games as a pedagogical resource in the teaching of mathematics. Such research is
relevant considering that, in contact with educational games, students feel an extra motivation
in learning a mathematical concept. There are countless benefits that recreational activities
can provide to students, such as attention, concentration, socialization, reflection and others.
The main benefit is learning in a meaningful and fun or enjoyable way. Among the various
games that currently exist, we highlight as an example 4 of them: Chess, Queen, Tower of
Hanoi and Tangram.
