CAN PLAYING A VIDEO GAME CHANGE YOU?

Experiment at the Science Museum in London

When: December 2016

Where: Freelance Job

Client: Researcher at University College London – London, UK

CHALLENGE

In order to explore if playing a game can affect your emotions it has been conducted an experiment at the Science Museum in London for five weeks.

To do this I had to design and develop a tablet native application that contains a few surveys and a memory match game with three levels of difficulty, where the user can play with either smiling faces or landscapes.

All the responses, from all the devices used during the experiment, were stored online in a common database.

In this research, they were studying if looking at smiling faces can make people feel happier.
