This study investigates game-based learning in the context of the educational game "Jo Wilder and the Capitol Case," focusing on predicting student performance using various machine learning models, including K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), and Random Forest. The research aims to identify the features most predictive of student performance and correct question answering. By leveraging gameplay data, we establish complete benchmarks for these models and explore the importance of applying proper data aggregation methods. By compressing all numeric data to min/max/mean/sum and categorical data to first, last, count, and nunique, we reduced the size of the original training data from 4.6 GB to 48 MB of preprocessed training data, maintaining high F1 scores and accuracy. Our findings suggest that proper preprocessing techniques can be vital in enhancing the performance of non-deep-learning-based models. The MLP model outperformed the current state-of-the-art French Touch model, achieving an F-1 score of 0.83 and an accuracy of 0.74, suggesting its suitability for this dataset. Future research should explore using larger datasets, other preprocessing techniques, more advanced deep learning techniques, and real-world applications to provide personalized learning recommendations to students based on their predicted performance. This paper contributes to the understanding of game-based learning and provides insights into optimizing educational game experiences for improved student outcomes and skill development.
