Problem
Misunderstanding of ADHD Creates Barriers
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, affecting 5–8% of children worldwide and an estimated 2.5–5% of adults globally.
Societal norms often place the burden of adjustment on neurodiverse individuals, expecting them to adapt to environments designed for neurotypical people.

How might we help neurotypical people empathize with and understand ADHD strengths and challenges?
Solution
A Gamified Experience to understand and the ADHD world
ADHDVenture aims to shift this perspective by immersing neurotypical players in real-world scenarios, fostering empathy through interactive storytelling and practical insights. By experiencing ADHD traits firsthand and learning actionable support strategies, players move beyond misconceptions and towards a more inclusive, understanding world.
