Abstract
Nowadays, gamification is applied in many areas, including healthy lifestyle promotion. In earlier work, a system has been proposed to stimulate diet compliance and adherence of participants of a trial within the PROMISS-project. In this paper, we describe the design of a gamified version of this system. The goal of the gamification is to further stimulate diet compliance and adherence to the system, but also to increase the knowledge about the diet and make the use of the system more fun. To do so, we implemented gamification elements (profile page, achievements, mini-games, and a reward garden) to address multiple behaviour change techniques. Based on a small evaluation, the system has been improved so that it can be used by participants of the PROMISS trial. At the end of this paper, future improvements are suggested in the future work section
