This research provides an analysis of the effects of integrating two types of gaming media, board game and smartphone application, of Klaus Teuber’s The Settlers of Catan in a business English class at a private Japanese university. Furthermore, this research also provides suggestions, as supported by qualitative data collected through post-game surveys, as to the most effective applications for both types of gaming media in EFL contexts.
