uChoose by InteractAble, Inc. is a fun and engaging game that uses a unique platform to teach social skills to individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). The highly visual and animated platform guides the user through various social scenarios using a series of multiple choice questions, mini games and conditional events for every game play. Achievable goals encourage the user to explore multiple outcomes for the same scenario with repeat plays. The near term learning outcome expected (and revealed in preliminary pilot studies), is a better understanding of various actions and cues key to successful social interactions. Longer term, after hours of play, we anticipate that a child with ASD will process information in social situations according to methods learned and generalized for unexpected situations.
