ABSTRACT
Educational Games;
National Hero Figures;
Unity; Game Design
This research aims to design an attention-grabbing and educational
design game about National Hero Figures, Hero Figures including in
history lessons where now history is a compulsory subject that
needs to be studied by all children. By studying history, it is hoped
that students can know history and appreciate the services of
previous heroes and draw subjects from the values contained in it.
Through history, values and social skills can be developed for
students in the form of democratic values, nationalism, patriotism,
responsibility, independence and the importance of education for
the progress of a nation. On the other hand, games for children are
able to accelerate the occurrence of myelination which can improve
cognitive and motor skills and can provoke interest in learning.
Researchers designed educational games accompanied by
interesting audio, animation and graphics to increase interest and
help children learn to get to know national heroes. This design game
was designed using Luther Sutopo's multimedia method. The luther
sutopo multimedia method consists of several stages, namely
concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and
distribution. The results obtained in the assessment through a
questionnaire that has been tested at Mis Azrina, Jalan Marelan Raya
No. 287 B, Rengas Pulau, Kec. in learning to get to know national
hero figures that have been proven in the results of the pre-test and
post-test.

1. Introduction
The use of learning media in schools has not been maximized. Learning media has not been
widely used in the learning process in the classroom or independent learning. This research aims to
make a valid and practical educational game as a medium for learning heroic history (U. Kurniawan,
2016; Puspitarini & Hanif, 2019; Siahaan et al., 2021). However, most applications are available in the form
of games that are less educational. In fact, it often has a negative impact on users, especially for
children who still cannot distinguish between positive and negative things. Almost the average school

child today prefers to spend time playing games rather than taking advantage of his time to study and
ironically many of them do not even know and know the names of national heroes from Indonesia.
With educational games with the theme of Indonesian national heroes, it is hoped that it will increase
the values of patriotism and nationalism among children, as well as increase knowledge about heroic
figures in Indonesia (M. A. Kurniawan et al., 2023).
Gaming has become one of the industries that has grown very fast lately. From the rapid
development of the gaming world. The advancement of technology has made games no longer a game
for certain groups. However, not everyone is interested and wants to play it. There are also people
who want to make game design. Game design is an art of bringing and implementing real-world life
into a game (Ulva & Akbar, 2021).
National Heroes so far are mostly unknown to children and parents, because history subjects
are identified as boring learning in the classroom. Both strategies, methods and learning techniques
rely more on a monotonous teacher-based approach. Teachers are positioned as the main source of
information, using a rote teaching method with the book and lecture method. As a result of this
learning process, students seem less enthusiastic about participating in learning and often become
bored because they are not stimulated to be involved in activities with various variants that teachers
should do in order to create a conducive learning atmosphere, where students can involve themselves
in activities and creativity.
In this work, the author will make an educational design game to introduce national heroes for
children as a learning goal for them. Heroes are included in history lessons, where now history is a
compulsory subject that needs to be learned by all children's students. By studying history, it is hoped
that students can know history appreciate the services of previous heroes and draw subjects from the
values contained in it. Through history, values and social skills can be developed for students in the
form of democratic values, nationalism, patriotism, responsibility, independence and the importance
of education for the progress of a natio .
Boredom can cause laziness in learning for children which is the attraction of the creator to
make this design game by utilizing it can improve the learning mood in children, children play can
easily remember what they are playing, in other words, children are easier to memorize the subject
while playing (Willingham, 2021). Games can also make memorization not easy to forget and not
boring so that laziness does not arise in the children. This game also has parental guidance warnings,
to always be under parental supervision when children play games so that children do not play for a
long time to reduce the radiation radiation in children (Wibawanto, 2018).
Seeing the current conditions that have also developed well, the author will make an
educational game to introduce national hero figures to elementary school children. Educational
games are games that are specifically designed to teach a certain learning, develop concepts,
understand, and guide players to practice their abilities and motivate players to be more interested
in learning activities (Purwatiningsih, 2014; Wahana Komputer, 2021). Early childhood education
stages tend to be interested in games that are easy to play and have an attractive visual display with
a variety of colorful displays and images that are varied and attention-grabbing (Ardini &
Lestariningrum, 2018). This stage will also make it easier to remember the lesson. Therefore, the
educational game designed by this artist contains quizzes and puzzles. Quiz is a game like multiple
choice with the content of guessing the hero character with a picture of the hero in each quiz
(Isammudin et al., 2021). Puzzel is a puzzle game on a picture that has been cut into several parts to
be arranged into an image, which with a variety of pictures of heroes, makes children even happier
(Fatimah et al., 2017). So that it can help children get to know national hero figures more fun through
games that run on android digitally offline. This game is designed with Unity 2D, in this game requires
at least using the Android version 8.0/8.1 Oreo to the Android 13 version, which requires a minimum
of 500Mb of memory (Adistya et al., 2023; Pramuditya et al., 2018).

The goal given by the author is to create interactive Game Design innovations as a learning
medium for children. Help children to memorize national hero figures more easily and fun through
game media. Gain new knowledge about the game Educational Design Game about hero characters.
2. Materials and Methods
Data collection techniques are the most strategic step in the research, this research aims to
design quiz and puzzle games as learning media to increase learning and social enthusiasm in
elementary school children. This design game was designed using Luther Sutopo's multimedia
method. The Luther sutopo multimedia method consists of several stages, namely concept, design,
material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. Because the main purpose of the research is
to collect data. The data used in this study were obtained through literature studies. The data
collection method is carried out in several ways, namely: This primary data collection is carried out
through a field observation process through direct observation around Mis Azrina Elementary School,
and the implementation of interviews as the main method, an interview with one of Mis Azrina
elementary school teachers. Secondary data collection is obtained through various sources such as
literature in the form of books, online sources, as well as relevant previous research. The author made

4. Conclusion
The design of this game is a manifestation of concern for the importance of an alternative
learning medium for heroic history for children. with the use of Android technology, it is expected to
be able to support technological developments in early childhood education. The reappointment of
the old history of the Heroes is also one of the introductions of heroes to the current generation. It is
hoped that this media can attract children's interest in learning the History of Heroes. There is a lot
to know and learn to produce this game as expected. The first thing to know is the theory of the hero
guess quiz, this is the main content of the game. Therefore, creativity in this media is the main concern
in design. Design theories and methods, especially game design, must be mastered, and
manufacturing techniques and basic requirements for designing an Android game must be met. All of
these theories and methods are adapted to the idea and theme of the game that adapt the history of
heroes. A review of the history must also be done in order to produce a memorable experience when
playing in the game. The next step is to create a design concept. All elements in the game are
conceptualized according to the theme and design goals. The concept of media goals and creative
goals must be achievable through media strategies and creative strategies. The strategy must be
supported by a visual concept to produce the expected visuals. The game concept of this game must
also be considered because the success of this game is determined by the success of the strategy in
this part of the concept. The next process is to produce the concept into game assets and arrange
them into a single game with a program. The production process of game assets goes through the
stages of searching for visual ideas, sketching, layout, and maturation. The author uses a
predetermined technique. Each asset must be able to be made according to its respective function
into an interactive media system. The end result of this production process is an Android game that
