- Description
- In this paper we review the general use of games in the domain of psychological counselling. We introduce a particular online program called SHADE that is designed to assist younger people with comorbid depression and alcohol or drug issues. We also discuss the design features of SHADOW, a game version of the SHADE program that is being designed to better engage participants so they complete this psychological counselling program.
