The case study approach is typically tied to numerous types of reliable data, including interviews, observations, and documents. Case studies are simply defined as an in-depth, detailed investigation process into a specific, and particular event that occurs. The researcher collected data at one of the Islamic High Schools in Mojokerto and conducted observations and interviews with ten student’s grade 10. Based on the results of the study, it was found that students experience of using Kahoot! Games tend to be positive, students find learning fun, increase focus and caution, eliminate boredom, and motivate students to read the entire text. Researcher findings also suggest that the use of educational games in the classroom is likely to minimize distractions, thereby improving the quality of teaching and learning beyond what is provided in conventional classrooms. This research is expected to help all teachers and future researchers to improve the teaching methods used in the classroom especially using gamification to improve student learning experiences.
