A Prostate Cancer Game Based on Multiple Decision-Making and Planning Skills

The scientific literature on games and health applications aimed at helping decision-making for prostate cancer is relatively modest, therefore, still requiring more significant contribution and exploration. This work presents a prostate cancer game based on decision-making and planning skills designed to replicate classic real-world prostate symptoms, treatment patterns, and care pathways. Players on the role of medical professionals have to manage the patients' health and cope with the care of multiple prostate cancer patients concurrently. Which patient to help first and which medical tests to request to decide the diagnosis and correct medical action are tasks that the player has to manage. Since every decision has its consequences, the ultimate goal is to make decisions without losing patients' lives.
