Students, video game designers, curriculum developers, and educators can benefit from this study's findings. This study aims to measure the effect of digital games on students' academic achievement. A quantitative approach and one group pretest-posttest design were employed. The population of this study consisted of 177 students of 5th class studying in 7 schools in all campuses of Dr. AQ khan School System during the session 2023 – 24. A simple random sampling technique was employed to select Dr. AQ khan school system H-13 Islamabad the sample for this research study consisted of 20 students of 5th-grade studying the subject of Mathematics. The validity of the tools was determined through the expert’s opinion. The study was conducted for four weeks. A pretest was administered to the experimental group at the start and then taught to the grade 5th class through digital games, and a posttest was administered at the end. Quantitative data were analyzed using mean, percentage, and paired sample t-test. Data analysis involved obtaining scores from pretest, posttest, and retention test. Which shows students performed better in post-test than pretest whereas retention scores were consistent with the post-intervention scores, suggesting a lasting effect of DGBL on learning.
