Mission & Vision
Founded in 1991, the mission of MedicalWorks, Inc.™ is to be the leading provider of health-focused educational game software.

MedicalWorks is a pioneer in developing health-focused media rich games, engaging AdverGames and custom game applications for the health industry, educational institutions and corporate wellness programs.

Applying our educational gaming expertise, MedicalWorks develops engaging software that is rigorously tested and proven effective in scientific studies.


History
MedicalWorks' first two products were funded by the National Institutes of Health. The game Mind & Mayhem was designed to move smokers along the continuum to quitting through education and positive reinforcement. The second product, Me, Inc., was designed to teach good decision making skills through a mystery/puzzle solving game.

Since the development of our first games, MedicalWorks has created a number of other health-related titles covering topics from general health and wellness to diabetes and nutrition.
