OVERVIEW

Sea Hero Quest is a groundbreaking mobile game designed to help fight dementia by turning gameplay into scientific research. It collects data on players’ spatial navigation skills-one of the first abilities affected by dementia. With millions of players worldwide, this innovative project has generated an unprecedented dataset, enabling researchers to study how navigation abilities change with age and potentially develop early diagnostic tools for dementia.

I was brought onto the Sea Hero Quest project by Saatchi & Saatchi as a Freelance UI Designer and Consultant, collaborating closely with game developers Glitchers to produce this innovative mobile game. I designed all interface screens, ensuring a seamless and intuitive user experience, and assembled a UI asset library to maintain design consistency.

"We have never seen anything undertaken in dementia research at this scale before. The data set that Sea Hero Quest generates is truly unprecedented."
