  Mundo Fantástico is a mobile game developed in partnership with the brazilian NGO "Herdeiros do Futuro" the org does an amazing job, helping kids that been victim of abuse and violence, the org offers psychologic assistance, the therapysts from the org works with kids that've been rescued by governamental institutions, through therapy sessions. The Idea of the project was to create a intermediary object to help the therapysts work, specially with younger kids. The game was composed of two mini games, both showing two different situations, one had the objective to teach kids about the dangers of speaking with strangers, and the other showed in a ludic way an agressive father. During the test sessions with the target audience, we found out the second game in specific was very effective in starting conversations, this way it helped the therapysts in their work.
