Does video games teach

Sure, but it depends on the Video Game. I played all of the Assassins Creed Games. My favorite being Assassins Creed 2 Which is set in Renaissance Italy. Now, I know that Ezio is a fictional character but Lorenzo De' Medici is not and the Pazzi family is not either. They also have historical figures besides Lorenzo such as Leonardo Da Vinci and Rodrigo Borgia, and they captured real life events and recreated them in a video game (therefore you learn). What I learned from this game actually helped me create a power point presentation in college. But obviously I cannot base all my knowledge from a video game you will need to do some research too. There are also some video games that I used to play to help me learn mathematics.
