The term nevertheless covers various meanings and we endeavor to explore it here as a socio-technical innovation. Then, based on the latest research, we identify its impact in the field of education. We study a particular application with the Pix software, which is used for learning digital skills, and analyze the feedback through a user survey and a study of the results. These elements allow us to discuss the educational impact of gamification and the meaning it attributes to the concept of play.}}
