Malay Warrior Board Game A Method of Appreciation of The Narrative of Hikayat Hang Tuah

ABSTRACT Hikayat Hang Tuah is a traditional Malay literary work that often attracts the attention of scholars both within and outside the nation. The story is always a topic of discussion in academic circles through the existence of studies from various perspectives such as the language content in the text by Hussin Sarif (2009), a comparison between modern works and the original text by Monique Zaini-Lajoubert (2010), the relevance of Hang Tuah as a heroic figure by Rahimah (2018), the symbol of sovereignty in the text by Tengku Mohd Ali and Ja’afar (2013), the character of Hang Tuah by Hashim Musa (2014), the character of Hang Tuah in the context of civilization by Ayu Nor Azilah Mohamad (2017), and the truth of Hang Jebat as a hero by Mohamed Anwar Omar Din (2019). The existence of these studies proves that the content of Hikayat Hang Tuah is still relevant for extensive study in various aspects, especially through the method of the Malay Hero Board Game which still needs to be explored. The study applied the Malay Heroes Board Game using two conceptual frameworks, namely 5W1H by Rudyard Kipling (1902) namely What, Who, Where, When, Why and How and the ADDIE model by FSU (1975) consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, Implement and Evaluate. The results of the study found that the Malay Heroes Board Game could be a product that has the potential to elevate the Hikayat Hang Tuah as a new medium in appreciating the narrative of classical Malay literature.   ABSTRAK Hikayat Hang Tuah merupakan sebuah karya kesusasteraan Melayu tadisional yang sering menjadi tumpuan pengkaji dalam negara mahupun luar negara.
