Problem
Children with executive dysfunction, particularly those with ADHD, often struggle to apply learned coping strategies to real-world situations due to unforeseen stimuli and triggers. Traditional interventions like 1:1 behavioral therapy are limited by therapist availability and high costs, and many children on medication experience adverse effects.
Solution
Unlimitics is a generative AI-powered school simulation game that lets children in grades 1-8 relive specific moments from their school life for "do-overs." Teachers and guardians provide input via speech or text, which the AI uses to create personalized scenarios targeting skills like self-regulation, emotional recognition, and problem-solving. The game uses Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment to modify gameplay in real-time based on the child's abilitiesaine, and generates side quests featuring diverse characters to promote generalization of skills. It is designed to be part of a broader therapeutic program that may include clinician-directed therapy, medication, or educational support.
Target Audience
The primary users are school-aged children (grades 1-8) with behavioral, self-regulatory, or socio-emotional concerns, along with their teachers, guardians, and clinicians who support them.
