CQ™ Game
Competence Quotient™ Game
Centre for Digital Media, Industry project, 2019.
For health practitioners who want or need to stay competent in their profession, the CQ™ Game is a 2D life simulation mobile game that allows them to engage with and develop strategies for staying competent in their job by having them live through a year in the life of a character.
Unlike games such as Life or Life Simulator, the CQ™ Game focuses on events, challenges, and situations that are unique to the experiences of health practitioners.
