Until now, the mastery of English in Indonesian on an international scale is in a low category. Learning English should be taught to children from an early age. For children with special needs, special learning methods are needed so that the material is conveyed. Educational games can be used as an interesting learning media. In this study, an English educational game was created that had the concepts of a quiz, rearrange, and matching. Fisher-Yates algorithm was applied to randomize the questions so that the questions that came out varied. Fuzzy Sugeno algorithm is also applied to the scoring calculation, with input variables of time, value, and the number of stars obtained. The system test outcomes show that the application of the Fisher-Yates algorithm was successful because every question that came out was randomized. The application of the Fuzzy Sugeno algorithm happened also successful because of the high degree of accuracy. Besides, the use of games shows there is an increase in student understanding as evidenced by the acquisition of grades. The results of the average value in doing the test is from 80.41 to 88.3 after playing the game.

In Indonesia, mastery of English on an international scale is in a low category [1]. In accordance with the the concept of educational for All (EFA), education is something that can be obtained by everyone. EFA is the mandate of the 1945 Constitution, namely article 31 paragraph (1), which reads "Every citizen has the right to education" [2]. The word "every" indicates that every child in Indonesia has the right to receive a proper education, including Children with Special Needs. Children with autism and mental retardation have different ways of learning, but in general, these children have a way of learning or abilities that stand out in the visual field [3]. Therefore, interactive media need to be used to support the learning process to make it more interesting and easy to understand [4, 5]. Educational games can be used as one of these media [6-8].
