Abstract This experimental research aimed to determine the effectiveness of simulation games as a strategy in teaching Mathematics. The study was conducted at Passi City College, Passi City, Iloilo during the Academic Year 2019-2020. The subjects of the study were the forty eight (48) BSBA second year students enrolled in Statistics. The subjects of the study were randomly distributed into the control and experimental group. Data gathered were analyzed using the mean and t-test. The results revealed that the respondents exposed to both strategies have the same performance in the pre-test. The use of simulation games improved the performance of the respondents in Mathematics. Respondents exposed to traditional method of teaching improved their performance in Mathematics. Both groups have the same performance in the post-test described as “Satisfactory”. The performance of the respondents in the pre-test exposed to traditional method and with the use of simulation games is almost the same. The performance of the respondents exposed to the use of simulation games in the pre-test and post-test differed significantly. Significant difference existed in the performance of the respondents exposed to the traditional method of teaching in the pre-test and post-test. The performance of the respondents exposed to both strategies in the post-test is comparable.
