About the Game

VRemedies is a patient preparation Virtual Reality set of experiences that are designed to introduce patients to procedures before they experience the real world environment. The experience is designed to allow children and their families to feel more comfortable with the treatments they are about to receive, we do this by taking them through the experience virtually.

Requires another person to supervise and respond to keyboard prompts.

Photogrammetry (photo – realistic) procedure rooms


Using a team of game developers and cinematographers re-created a Radiotherapy procedure room.

Guided walk through of procedures.


We worked with direct access and feedback from hospitals, clinicians and play therapists to create a guided walk through of the Radiotherapy procedure.

Friendly Characters


Robot hospital staff to walk the children through the experience.

Environmental Interactivity

Interact with the rooms and discover how the machines sound and how they work in a safe "non scary" environment.

Exposure Therapy


The rooms are currently being user tested as a method of Exposure therapy, desensitising people to the procedures and rooms and as a result lowering the amount of children needing sedation for these non evasive procedures.
