Abstract: Fake News has grown absurdly in volume and sharing in recent times. This is due to the evolution of social media and access to the internet. However, the number of Fake News stories shared on the internet without a critical analysis of the information has been unprecedented. It should be noted that Media and Information Literacy practices have been adopted to combat Fake News. In this context, Educational Games and Intelligent Tutor Systems have been successful in training people to recognize this type of news. The aim of this study is to identify and analyze the methods and characteristics described and implemented by Educational Games and Intelligent Tutor Systems projects, which are the most widely used Media and Information Literacy tools during the educational process to identify Fake News. To do this, the Systematic Literature Review methodology was used, where it was possible to observe, for example, that around 94% of the tools developed corresponded to Educational Games and only three were available in Portuguese. It was also concluded that there has been a decrease in the number of published studies involving the use of these tools to combat Fake News.
