Popis: Since the onset of the COVID-19 coronavirus, several sectors have been working to understand the virus, the symptoms, and the evolution of the disease. The issues of immunity are currently the subject of various research and studies. A promising approach is to use playful video culture to raise awareness and train players to adopt good eating habits to strengthen the immune system. In this article, we describe a prototype of a serious game about how to strengthen immune defenses in order to fight a coronavirus infection and build an antivirus barrier. This game aims at providing information on the link between food, immunity and the spread of the virus within the human body so it illustrates risky behaviours so as to raise awareness of the modifications to be adopted to improve the immune system.
