Abstract
Objective: To describe the process of redesigning the first version of a role-playing game designed to promote therapeutic adherence in children and adolescents on hemodialysis. The redesign was prompted by the results of an alpha test conducted with the initial version of the game. Method: This report outlines a technological innovation developed through the following stages: an initial brainstorming session among researchers, a literature review, reorganization of the game’s mechanics and dynamics, a second brainstorming session, creation of new maps using Inkarnate® and Dungeon Painter Studio®, addition and removal of characters, and the layout design of the instruction manual and narrative book. Results: The process led to a second version of the role-playing game that is more engaging, visually appealing, and functionally improved in terms of mechanics and gameplay dynamics. Conclusion: The redesign of the first version of the game followed essential steps to enhance the original version, resulting in a product better suited to its target audience. The two brainstorming sessions facilitated the exchange of ideas and helped clarify feedback obtained during the initial testing phase.
