This study aims at researching how the implementation of PaGamO, a game-learning platform, influences sixth graders' learning attitude and effectiveness in social studies. It also explores the satisfaction of the experimental group students about the implementation of PaGamO, with the purpose of offering the teachers teaching reference. The method used in this study was quasi-experimental research, with pre-test and post-test. The satisfaction of digital learning was proceeded by using questionaire survey along with semistructured interviews. Three classes of sixth graders in an elementary school in Mial-li, totally 81 students, were taken as the research target. The students who used PaGamO were the experimental group, while the rest not using PaGamO were the control group. PaGamO started to be imported after the midterm test in the first semester, and the whole period of the implementation was eight weeks. According to the result of this research, PaGamO positively influenced students' learning attitude and effectiveness; that is, it helped improve their learning viewpoints and raise up their learning accomplishment. As to the satisfaction of digital learning, there was no obvious difference between male students and female ones, and most students, up to 72.4% of the total, were contented with the implementation of PaGamO.
