LifeGuard Games

LifeGuard Games, Inc. is a Boston-based company 'gamifying' healthcare through mobile games that teach and motivate kids to manage chronic health conditions. We have created Wizdy Pets - a virtual pet game that engages kids to manage their asthma by caring for a pet dragon who also has asthma. With over 11,000 unique users, Wizdy Pets teaches kids proper inhaler timing and technique, trigger recognition and avoidance, as well as symptom recognition and proper rescue inhaler use. We've worked with asthma specialists from Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School to develop educational content for our game. To learn more, visit our website. At LifeGuard Games, we hope to reduce the number of unplanned emergency visits, increase adherence, and educate kids about their health. Asthma is just the beginning of our journey to create a healthier future for kids; we aspire to create more games addressing food allergies, obesity, and other aspects of kids' health.
