Abstract: Introduction Using digital technologies helps enhance learners' interest and participation in classes such as Integrated Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS). The purpose of this study is to create animated interactive learning multimedia using Scratch that aims to teach Indonesian cultural heritages that have received international acknowledgment in a stylized and engaging way. Methods The research and development (R&D) of the interactive learning multimedia, Scratch Wabimendu, was conducted using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The effectiveness of the intervention was evaluated through a quasi-experimental study employing a non-equivalent control group design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with three experts in game-based learning, education, and software development. Results Experts reported that the implementation of Scratch Wabimendu MIL (Multimedia Interactive Learning) resulted in increased engagement, motivation, and comprehension among learners. The findings also revealed that the media was successfully developed, and students who were exposed to it exhibited significant improvements in learning outcomes. Inferential analyses demonstrated these improvements, with normalized gains of 0.493 for the experimental group and 0.209 for the control group ( p < 0.001), accompanied by a substantial effect size (Cohen's d > 1.726). Discussion Thus, Scratch Wabimendu has been well developed and serves as an effective instructional media for enhancing the learning outcomes of learners while fostering a greater understanding of Indonesia's cultural history and heritage.
