Project Description
ILD Diagnosis Detective is single-player mobile mystery game of deduction and diagnosis in 5 elementary steps that mirror the clinical differential diagnosis process for Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD). The player assumes the role of a detective who must review the patient case and match evidence with suspected diagnoses to uncover the final diagnosis. The wrap up reinforces the correct diagnosis and highlights nuances in the disease presentation. This game spans 15 cases of varying complexity and players are scored based upon both matching accuracy and final suspect selection. Scores are displayed on a master leaderboard to encourage competition amongst peers and to drive players to replay cases to achieve higher accuracy scores and reinforce knowledge. The game is designed to be played in short bursts, where the pulmonologist can pick up their phone and play a case in under 10 minutes during their commute to clinic or on a lunch break.
