JADE is an educational game we have imagined, designed, built, and used successfully in various contexts. This board game enables learning and practicing software ergonomics concepts.

In this paper, we present the classical version of the game, as well as the design and evaluation process that we applied. We also present the hybrid version of JADE, which relies on the use of QR codes and videos. We also present its use in our teaching (with about 850 learners for a total duration of 54 hours, which totals more than 2500 student-hours).
