For this research we used two digital social games The Sims Social and Wetopia present in Facebook, with two groups of students of English. The research approach was qualitative, exploratory in nature and used the case study methodology. Data were collected through the interactions between the participants during the game chats and recorded content present in the wall of the groups created on Facebook as well as on semi-structured interviews after the experiment. As the survey results, it is noted that the digital social games present in the context of a digital social media enable an environment for teaching and learning English Language, favoring its the development, allowing the alingment between classroom and the games, engaging participants in collaborative activities and generating interest intheir learning with and through games.
