Abstract: In this work three multi edutainment platforms were evaluated in order to explore usability aspects of edutainment in e-learning. These three platforms were Virtual classroom, Game-based and Storytelling. Entertainment features represented by speech, avatars with graphics and game activity was combined in these three different platforms. Moreover earcons were incorporated to help users resolve problems given efficiently and quickly. A dependent group was used to measure users' performance in terms of user achievement, correct answers and satisfaction. The experimental results collected indicated that the Game-based approach was the best in terms of users' achievement effectiveness as well as satisfaction with the interface and overall learning experience.
