Teaching English has become one of the most important subjects in Uzbekistan for everybody ranging from nursery attendees to working professionals. In compulsory education, it is an essential part of the curriculum. Young learners of public schools are keen on learning, but if the lessons are not interesting the learners tend to lose interest and the effectiveness of the lessons decreases. Game-based learning may serve the same purpose to improve motivation and results.
