E.g., like Assassins Creed Origins’ museum mode where you could learn about Egypt. Less so things like Hearts of Iron or Crusader Kings.

There’s plenty of educational games aimed at elementary school students, but I’m curious if there are any aimed at older audiences, like the game equivalent of a nonfiction book.

    If you like AC’s museum mode, you might be into Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 and 2. The first game is a bit janky at times, and some of the characters are fictional, but there will be a pop-up video-esque prompt to let you know what the real history is, what they changed, and why.

    Also, I haven’t gotten around to playing it yet myself, but I’ve seen people learn a lot about space missions second hand via Kerbal Space Program.
