Playful Ageing

Playful Ageing was the final outcome of my masters project and it is built on the concept of encouraging and assisting the elderly in engaging in activities that are both enjoyable and beneficial to their physical and mental health. It is based on the notion that play can help to reduce the effects of ageing, such as physical and cognitive decline, as well as improve overall quality of life.

Overall, this design project aimed at assisting and encouraging play among the elderly is an important step toward closing the generational gap and improving the overall quality of life for senior citizens. 

While this project produced a variety of outcomes, the main focus was on a Digital game that engaged the player physically, mentally and provided a useful assessment of their reaction time
