Preferensi bermain anak-anak di era digital cenderung beralih ke permainan digital sehingga permainan tradisional seperti congkak mulai ditinggalkan. Sebagai upaya pelestarian, permainan congkak dialihwahanakan ke bentuk digital, salah satunya melalui aplikasi Congkak di Google Play Store. Namun, congkak digital menghadirkan pengalaman dan aturan bermain yang berbeda dari congkak tradisional yang berdampak pada pewarisan nilai dan fungsi budaya congkak tradisional. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik dokumentasi dan observasi partisipatif serta diolah dengan analisis komparatif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa aplikasi Congkak tidak sepenuhnya mewariskan unsur nilai dan fungsi budaya permainan congkak tradisional. Aplikasi Congkak memberikan rasa senang dan bebas serta mewariskan fungsi permainan congkak untuk melatih keuletan, kemampuan berpikir kritis, dan berhitung anak.  Ketika aplikasi dimainkan berdua, unsur nilai yang diwariskan meliputi nilai demokrasi (musyawarah dan kejujuran), nilai sosial (kemampuan berkomunikasi, bersosialisasi, serta menghadapi dan memecahkan masalah), dan nilai kesatria (sportivitas, rendah hati, lapang dada, dan tenggang rasa).  Namun, ketika aplikasi dimainkan sendiri, unsur nilai-nilai tersebut tidak terwariskan. Meskipun inovasi ini relevan dengan era digital, peneliti berharap pengembang dapat memperbarui aplikasi dengan mempertimbangkan pewarisan nilai dan fungsi budaya congkak tradisional. Dengan demikian,  nilai dan fungsi congkak tradisional yang terwariskan bisa lebih banyak.
