      ab: The integration of gamified learning and collaborative learning has led to the emergence of a growing field known as Gamified Collaborative Learning (GCL), which effectively addresses the challenges associated with students' lack of motivation and participation in computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). In this paper, we conducted a systematic literature review on GCL from 2014 to 2024. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research in GCL and identifies key trends and gaps. The search using these terms identified 82 papers reporting empirical evidence about the design, implementation, and outcomes of GCL. The findings reveal that GCL is linked to an enhancement of affective, cognitive, behavioural, social outcomes in CSCL. The notable effects of gamified pedagogies are to enhance group cohesion and members' responsibility and motivation in CSCL.
