Instead of focusing primarily on treatment and disease management, health care providers are looking towards prevention and a more holistic approach to health and wellness. Some surprising statistics mentioned included the fact that the percentage of Singapore residents with diabetes aged between 18 and 69 years old has increased from 8.2% in year 2004 to 11.3% in year 2010 (National Registry of Diseases Office, 2011).

Obviously there is huge potential for serious games to contribute to behavioural and attitude change with regard to awareness and prevention of chronic disease such as obesity and diabetes, as well as in the area of mental health.
