Nursing education includes cognitive, affective and psychomotor learning areas that enable students to take on certain roles. Reasons such as limited clinical applications, patients' reluctance to have students practice and the low number of teaching staff negatively affect the development of students. For this reason, technological developments are integrated into the nursing education curriculum and it is tried to provide knowledge and skills to students in a safer and more effective way. Game-based learning is becoming more and more common in the education of nursing students who grow up in the age of technology. Game-based learning provides permanence in knowledge, supports active learning and increases student satisfaction. Recently, one of the applications involving technology in nursing education is virtual game simulation. Virtual game simulation is a 2D (two-dimensional) virtual computer game involving simulated real people, allowing students to actively participate in a clinical scenario. Virtual simulation games are designed with realistic scenarios for students to experience the clinical environment, improve their self-confidence, critical thinking and clinical decision making skills. The aim of this article is to explain virtual game simulation, which is a new approach in game-based learning in nursing education, and research on the subject.
