This study aims to determine the effectiveness of monopoly games in group counseling services to improve emotional control among students at SMP Negeri 1 Baitussalam. This is a quantitative study with a pre-experimental approach using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of eight students selected using purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted using a Likert scale questionnaire to measure emotional control. The results of the study indicate a significant improvement in students' emotional control after the intervention, as evidenced by the paired sample t-test results, which yielded a t-value of 8.792, greater than the critical t-value of 2.365 (8.792 > 2.365), meaning the alternative hypothesis is accepted and the null hypothesis is rejected. Additionally, the average N-Gain of 0.60 falls within the moderate category. The study concludes that the monopoly game effectively improves students' emotional control. This research is a reference for future studies on the application of games in enhancing students' emotional control. It can serve as a guideline for guidance counselors in designing more effective counseling services.
