Insufficient knowledge of bacteria and antimicrobials leads to the emergence of multidrug-resistant-bacterium infections. Diversification of the teaching forms, such as the use of games, could be a solution. We organized an event around 3 games (Bacteria Game, KROBS, and Dawaa) to collect student feedback on the evening and assess their knowledge before and after the evening using multiple-choice questions. The preliminary results suggest a positive effect of this event, but due to the low number of participants, we see this report more as a proof of concept to assess the impact of games on the learning.
