AbstractThe main and especially function of language, including Indonesian, is a communication tool, both in the form of spoken and written variety. The content of the message can be packaged in a straightforward manner/denotation or figure of speech/connotation. The existence of Indonesian as a tourism promotion tool, because tourism objects are not always packaged in a straightforward manner, but can be packaged in a figurative way (so that the form of "language games" is used). Because the existence of promotional texts that contain elements of the form of "language games" has strategic value, which is able to arouse a sense of "curious: interesting and tickling" (for potential tourists). Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that there are three kinds of promotional text forms that contain elements of the form of "language games", namely: 1. form of deviation (sentence structure pattern), 2. form of: a. ambiguous type, and b. game sounds of words (word elements), and 3. accuracy of diction. Research implementations departs from three strategic stages, as applicable in linguistic research, namely: 1. stage of providing/collecting data, 2. stage of data classification and analysis, and 3. stage of writing/compiling reports. The application of the theory departs from linguistic theory: phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. Application of these four fields implies the existence of: language, users, uses, and usage. Provision of data departs from the findings of the listener, and author's creation efforts. The existence of data and data analysis serves as an effort to prove, namely that the existence of promotional texts that contain elements of the form of "language games" has strategic value.
