For this, a descriptive investigation is developed through a qualitative analysis of the texts obtained through a forum using, for this, the webQDA Software. The sample used for this study is 52 students. The objective is to know if the students are in favor or against the use of videogames in an educational environment and which are the reasons that lead them to opt for one or the other opinion. It is concluded that the majority of students are in favor of videogames because of their motivating and playful nature for developing logical, critical thinking and problem solving.
