Research in vocabulary learning has been extensively investigated the factors that affect receptive vocabulary, however the amount of research in productive vocabulary is scarce. The study reported in this article aimed to explore and describe to what extent a board game called “Active” affect 10th-grade EFL students' active vocabulary in a public school in Bello. The game was designed as a memory-based strategy and target frequently nouns relevant to students’ daily lives. Four lesson plans were applied to 32 students and the classes took place in the classroom. This study used a qualitative method. Vocabulary performance was tested with pre-test and, post-test and during-test after each lesson. The data collection included interviews and observations. The research found significant gains in vocabulary retention and retrieval. Moreover, the game fostered motivation and engagement, highlighting the value of gamification in enhancing language learning.
