I Expect You To Die
How can we create an immersive, entertaining virtual reality game while avoiding motion-sickness?
We decided to create a seated experience to eliminate the need for movement. The user is a super-spy with telekinetic powers and has to escape certain deadly situations.
I Expect You To Die has been recognized as one of the most well-polished virtual reality games. With awards from VISION, D.I.C.E., and Art of the Title, the game was on PlayStation’s “most downloaded VR games” for four months in a row, and has compiled a list of highly acclaimed reviews from Wired to Hardcore Gamer.
In August 2017, I Expect You To Die surpassed $1 million dollars in revenue across the "Top 3" virtual reality platforms.

Night Shift
How can a game reduce diagnostic errors by doctors and physicians in an Emergency Department (ED)?
In partnership with University of Pittsburgh, and with funding by the NIH, Schell Games helped create a game that places physicians in the shoes of an emergency medicine doctor who is faced with different critical care situations. The goal is for the game to challenge the diagnostic heuristics of the physician playing and to help them re-evaluate how they think of the “trauma” patient.
The game is still in closed-beta testing, but it has already been receiving positive coverage. Dr. Deepika Mohan’s article about the game can be found on BioMed Central, and the whole team was covered in an article published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
In December 2017, Dr. Mohan had her research published in The BMJ. The results were positive, with doctors who played the game outperforming those doctors who didn't.

Mo the Monster
Osmo wanted an Augmented Reality (AR) solution that would be use to interact with physical creations by the player.
Osmo and Schell Games partnered up to create Mo the Monster. Using the camera function and AR technology, players can draw pictures and creations that Mo would then "pull" into his environment to use.
The Mo the Monster experience has won a Silver Parents' Choice Award, a platinum Oppenheim Award, and critical acclaim from some of the most respected toy reviewers in the country.

S.E.C.R.E.T.
The Children’s Museum of Houston increased its capacity and wanted an innovative way to not only use the space, but to utilize it in a way that would create more engagement with its 6 - 15 year old patrons and keep their families returning to the museum.
The museum partnered with Schell Games and created “S.E.C.R.E.T.,” a location-based experience where museum goers are secret agents and have missions to complete around the museum in order to thwart the efforts of an evil organization.
By 2016, almost 30 percent of visitors in the targeted age range had participated in a mission, and the museum had sold over 3,000 missions. Halfway through 2017, over 11,000 missions have been initiated, with nearly a quarter of them being returning missions.
