Gamification?
"Gamification" is a very broad term so I'm curious what "gamification items" you've seen. Storyline and Rise publish web content, so if you can think of a kind of gamification, the platform can likely play a part in it because that's the power of all web content.
I can make a leaderboard in a Word document, and I can create a branching scenario in a PowerPoint presentation, so what is that you hope Articulate's products can do?
Thanks for the response - thinking stuff like adding an avatar that can pop bubbles with answers to a question or play with buttons for people to select right answers or drag and drop content pieces into buckets of right and wrong answers... really simple stuff but more engaging that just going through content reading it...
You'll want Storyline 360 over Rise then. Rise has a lot of interactivity component templates, but ironically if you want to add anything deeper or complex, especially like you describe, someone would need to build it in Storyline and then import it into Rise. So, better to start with Storyline.
Its drag-and-drop functionality is pretty deep and mature, and can also be extended with custom "triggers" on special slides called "freeform questions" (which don't have to be questions.)
You'll find oodles of buttons very similar in function to PowerPoint, albeit with deeper functions and access to everything on a slide.
When you say an avatar popping bubbles, do you imagine a character moving around on the screen, colliding with bubbles, and the bubbles then disappearing?
