  • People voluntarily work to solve puzzle games like this. 
  • They learn answers to things that are of no lasting importance.
  • Just because they like the game.
  • Education has a more efficient system.
  • Give them all the answers at the start.
  • Don't let them waste time figuring things out for themselves.
  • After all, education already has all the answers.
  • Except how to make education as attractive as games.
