MixUp FixUp Gameplay

  • MixUp FixUp isn’t just "OT-approved"—it designed from the start based on core occupational therapy principles and frameworks. Our gameplay loop is intentionally designed to simulate clinical interventions that target many visual perceptual skills, for example:

    • Visual Memory: Players must "snap a photo" with their mind to remember where characters belong. This strengthens the brain's ability to store and retrieve visual information for daily tasks.

    • Visual Discrimination: Finding the exact right character among similar options. which trains the brain to filter out distractions and notice the small details essential for skills such as reading and letter recognition.

    • Spatial Relationships:‍ ‍Players practice determining the correct position of the characters relative to one another and other items in the scene, supporting organization and understanding directional words.

    MixUp FixUp can be used to target more than just visual perceptual skills. Learn more about how it can help here.

  • Absolutely! While the game is built on a therapeutic foundation, the "magic" is that it just feels like play. Children love the silly animations, the vibrant worlds, and the "Chaos Goblins." Whether you are using it in a therapy session or as a fun, low-stress activity at home, the enjoying play is always one of the main goals.

  • The game features diverse environments designed to keep engagement high, including Chiggy's At Home, North Pole: Polar Peek, and coming soon - Adventure Island! Each theme offers different levels of visual complexity to scale the challenge for the player. We will continue building more playful worlds showcasing our chiggies, their friends, and all the shenanigans they create along the way.
