Mathematics learning in elementary schools often faces obstacles, especially in conveying abstract concepts such as fractions. Students' low understanding is caused by the lack of connection between the material and everyday life. An ethnomathematics approach, which connects mathematical concepts with local culture, can be a solution. This study aims to develop an ethnomathematics-based educational game by integrating local wisdom from East Sumba in fraction learning. The method used in this study is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) Development model. The game was developed by embracing local culture such as the distribution of meat in traditional ceremonies (kaparakang), ikat weaving patterns, and the division of agricultural land as learning contexts. A trial was conducted on elementary school students to assess the game's effectiveness in improving student understanding
