The learning process is a very important activity to gain knowledge about various things in this world. Lerning takes many forms and comes from various resources, such as school, reading books in the library, or even when searching the internet. New learning methods such as using video game media can also makes learning easier. Therefore, a local history game about Pontianak City was developed with the intention of giving alternative learning tool to learn about history of the formation of Pontianak City. The game runs on Windows operating system and was developed using the Game Development Life Cycle (GDLC), by utilizing the Unified Modeling Language (UML) in the form of Use Case Diagrams and Activity Diagrams. System testing includes two stages, Alpha Testing which uses Black Box Testing, and Beta Testing using User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure that the application meets the requirements. Based on the design that has been done, a video game application about the history of the development of Pontianak City has been developed to meet the user needs with 15 Black Box Testing test cases showed that all functionalities worked correctly without any errors in the system, and UAT tested by software development expert yielded a result of 87,5%, and UAT tested by peoples familiar with video game yielded a result of 87,4%, indicating that respondents strongly support the use of the application that has been developed.
