<![CDATA[The Mburukulu Elementary School in Mburukulu Village, Pahunga Lodu District, East Sumba Regency, is facing challenges in teaching Citizenship Education (PKN) in class V. The lack of interaction between teachers and students and the lack of student involvement has resulted in boredom, lack of focus, and lack of enthusiasm in Study. This research aims to create and implement an interactive educational game entitled "Student Explore" which was specifically developed for the Android platform.

In its development, the GDLC method was used to ensure the game met expected quality standards and maximized its potential in enhancing learning. The benefits of this research include increasing students' interest in learning, better understanding of concepts, and support for teachers in the learning process. The result of this research is the implementation of educational games to improve students' learning understanding at SD Masehi Mburukulu.
