The brief

Reaching healthcare trainees in a different way and keeping them involved in an innovation challenge throughout a week.

The experience

A blended game inspired by Florence Nightingale. Through WhatsApp, websites and handwritten letters, trainees received assignments to complete independently throughout the week, with puzzles and a competition format. They worked towards a prototype.

My contribution

Together with one business partner, I created the story and assignments, built the puzzles and developed the competition format.
