Our Mission

VitaGames is a unique project aimed at helping Ukrainian children to adapt to new environments and overcome the adverse effects of war and immigration. Under the supervision of our project team, which includes software development, psychology, and medical research specialists, children will learn how to create video games using the Construct 3 game engine. Besides new skills that can be an introduction to a future career, we expect to find a decrease in children's anxiety and depression levels after the VitaGames educational course has been fulfilled.
