Abstract This paper aims to show how the Logic of Game Theory can facilitate structuring games for learning mathematical concepts, in a way which is cognitively resonant with students’ attitudes and epistemologically sound from standpoint. We propose kind game, based on an inquiry approach mathematics, called Digital Inquiry (DIG), aim foster positive beliefs about their capabilities regards problem solving improve students are able grasp epistemic aspects knowledge question. The main issues surrounding theoretical background inspiring key constructs DIG explained. design validated through case study concerning some properties integers general divisibility criterion. Finally, further researches considered.
