Role-playing games (RPGs) have a controversial public image in several countries, including Spain. These fears lack a scientific basis, as role-playing games may be useful in education. Educational trends such as gamification are helping to change this perspective, incorporating elements of RPGs in applications like learning management systems (LMS), e.g., Classcraft. Given the increased research interest in this topic, this paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) report on the state-of-the-art related to RPGs in an Ibero-American education research context. In the study, a comprehensive search is carried out for the most relevant research papers indexed in Latindex, founded through the virtual repository Dialnet for papers between 2010 and 2019 in the field of education. The search chain was ‘role-playing games’, erasing those topics not related. Results show that there are several relevant references, even though they do not seem to have had a great impact. It can be concluded that there is an interest in RPGs in education, especially in Spain, but their potential is still to be developed.

绘制伊比利亚-美洲的角色扮演游戏：教育评论

角色扮演游戏 (RPG) 在包括西班牙在内的多个国家/地区的公众形象存在争议。这些恐惧缺乏科学依据，因为角色扮演游戏可能对教育有用。游戏化等教育趋势正在帮助改变这种观点，将 RPG 元素融入到学习管理系统 (LMS) 等应用程序中，例如 Classcraft。鉴于对该主题的研究兴趣增加，本文提供了一份系统文献综述 (SLR) 报告，内容涉及伊比利亚美洲教育研究背景下与 RPG 相关的最新技术。在这项研究中，对在 Latindex 中索引的最相关的研究论文进行了全面搜索，这些论文是通过虚拟存储库 Dialnet 建立的，用于 2010 年至 2019 年间教育领域的论文。搜索链是“角色扮演游戏”，删除那些不相关的话题。结果表明，有几个相关的参考文献，尽管它们似乎没有产生很大的影响。可以得出结论，人们对 RPG 教育感兴趣，尤其是在西班牙，但其潜力仍有待开发。
