Mathematical games in the teaching and learning of mathematics: a bibliometric review in Scopus. Revista InveCom [online]. 2025, vol.5, n.4, e504013.  Epub 12-Jun-2025.

The objective of this research was to carry out a bibliometric study in Scopus based on mathematical games for learning through mathematics, from 2000 to 2024. To do this, a bibliometric method and a quantitative approach were used. From this, 232 documents were chosen from the Scopus database. The results show that of all countries, the United States recorded the largest increase in scientific output at 15.1% between 2016 and 2024, contributing to a total increase of 71.1%. In addition, social sciences (33.8%) and computer science (19%), were the most relevant fields of study, while the main author with the most citations was Fessakis, G. with 308 citations and the most prominent source was Computers And Education with 12 published papers. It is concluded that research on mathematical games for education has progressed in terms of the breadth of topics covered, participation and collaboration among authors, the level of institutional cooperation, and the availability of relevant data. Therefore, the results point to a growing trend in the use of games in the classroom, with an emphasis on collaborative and interdisciplinary tactics, which has an impact on students' attitudes and behaviors towards mathematics. Therefore, this bibliometric analysis establishes a basis for other studies in the future.
