Mindfulness Techniques Taught Through Game Mechanics
summary
Interactive narrative mobile game built in Unity mobile app follows teenager Jenny and her dog Fido and embeds three concrete mechanics: mindful breathing (tap to expand for inhale, release for exhale, repeated cycles), here and now (tap items matching five senses), and mindful eating (tap each bite with explanatory messages). Claim is that these mechanics make mindfulness more engaging for adolescents; prototype walkthrough is recorded and playable, but the submission shows no controlled efficacy numbers or long-term adherence data.
