The popularity of digital games offers new-generation students an effective mathematics learning approach. In this study, a digital game intervention is used to enhance the learning of school mathematics for primary school students. The participants were first-grade children identified by the school as having difficulties in mathematics. The students were assigned to interact with the game implemented as a parallel part of normally scheduled class activities for one semester. The results revealed that using digital games for cognitive engagement with the regular mathematical content being taught in a classroom increased students’ learning potential.
