  • Publication number: 20230343242
    Abstract: A system and method for an interactive video game system for educating at least one player about organism immunity to toxins or infections using a video game. The video game system utilizes a video game server and associated database, and wherein the server includes a processor which executes software stored on the database for generating virtual human body organs, immunity system cells and organisms, toxins, and viruses that have invaded a human body (“invaders”) and all of which interact in a manner that mimics a human body's immune system response. The at least one player computer device has a display screen and a user interface to permit the at least one player to interact with the video game server to configure a virtual immune system generated by said video game server to stop an attack by the invaders and to score points based on how successful the at least one player is in stopping said attack.
