Too often, promising research results go unused. We use design to ensure that your results do have social impact.
Designers at 8D are not only creative makers; they are also skilled in design thinking, generative action research, co-creation and prototyping.
In every role we play, our goal is the same: ‘How can we use this project result to improve lives, now and in the future?’
We collaborate with researchers affiliated with and/or funded by:
Increasing therapy adherence through gaming: is it possible? This is what we investigated in collaboration with researchers and specialists from the University Medical Center Groningen. With astonishing results. During prototype playtests, participants exceeded the expected engagement levels with the game, demonstrating its potential to enhance adherence to therapy.
Can persuasive technology – such as a serious game – help promote interdisciplinary collaboration? This is a key research question within the project ‘eZoon’ by the University of Twente. Team 8D Games worked in this research consortium as an advisory and development partner.

At least, we think so. Together with partners, we like to create informative white papers and webinars. These are freely available, without leaving contact details. We do like to hear whether our knowledge base has given you new ideas and what information you are still missing as a researcher.
