Learning English grammar is often considered difficult and boring by students, especially when it comes to conditional sentences, which have a fairly complex sentence structure. Therefore, teaching methods and learning materials are needed to increase student engagement and motivation. This article aims to introduce a game-based learning tool in the form of a card game called Conditional Sentence Linked Cards to help students understand Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 conditional sentences. This medium is designed as colorful cards containing an if clause and a result clause that students arrange into sentences that are correct in both structure and meaning. The game has two modes, namely groups race and group members’ race, allowing students to learn through cooperation or competition. The use of these learning cards creates a more interactive, enjoyable, and contextual learning atmosphere, helping students understand the structure of conditional sentences more effectively.
