    Teaching of selective permeability content of the plasma membrane involves microscopic concepts, which are consideredabstract and require students' imagination.When promoting teaching of this content, teachers can use several didactic materials, among them, electronic games. However, one of the challenges faced by teachers is to find an electronic game related to the curriculum content.From that perspective, the aim of this text is to present the results from a master's research in whichan educational game was built, applied, and evaluated that deals with concepts of selective permeability, such as osmosis, simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion and, active transport. As a methodology, we follow the assumptions of the qualitative approach.For the development of the research, initially, an electronic game about the cell membrane was created. The game was applied to fourteen students from a private high school and twenty students from a federal institution who were studying Cell Biology in Higher Education. Observations of students' reactions and comments while playing were writen down in a field notebook. In addition to the observations, we also applied a questionnaire to students. Both notes of the observations and answers to the questionnaires were used as a data source in the investigation.The results of the inductive analyses show that the game has the curriculum content written optionally and not explained during the game. Participants described the game as a challenging and fun resource and demonstrated that it takes into account the proposed balance between gameplay and curriculum content. From the analysis of these results, we consider that the game created can be used, by teachers, at any level of education. The curricular content present in the game can be mediated by the teacher, based on the goals of the subject, for every level of education.
