DETAILS
To create our socioeconomic simulation, we started from the proven mechanical model outlined by CityMatCH`s LifeCourse Game. Building on this foundation, we created an immersive and engaging environment using cutting-edge web technologies.
The flat, two-dimensional board has been replaced with a virtual city, replete with towering skyscrapers and streets alive with traffic. Participants are assigned a case and explore the first thirty years of that character`s life, witnessing the social determinants that shaped their experiences.
BACKParticipants conclude their virtual patient experience with a first-person health provider encounter. Throughout the encounter, participants will experience obstacles stemming from the character`s early life events, demonstrating the far-reaching effect that social determinants can have on an individual`s life.
