ABOUT PIXEL PATIENTS
Pixel Patients is a free pixel-art study game for medical students. Knock on the exam room door, examine the patient, collect six findings, then make the call: a main diagnosis and two differentials.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- Step 1 wing: 101 basic science cases across every organ system.
- Step 2 CK wing: 150 clerkship cases, 25 each for Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, OB/GYN, Psychiatry and Family Medicine. Each one ends with a next-best-step question.
- Bonus rounds: heart sounds, blood smears, histology slides and ECGs.
- Rapid triage, readmissions and the Physician Lounge, where you review solved patient files, track your accuracy by system and spend your paycheck at the vending machine.
HOW THE CASES ARE MADE
Every case is an original teaching case written for this game from classic textbook presentations and current clinical guidelines, then checked against current references. None are copied from question banks or recalled from real exams. All patients are fictional.
Cases are simplified for review and can still contain mistakes. Check anything important against an authoritative source.
WHO MADE IT
Pixel Patients is an independent project made by a medical student. It is free to play and is not affiliated with any licensing exam, testing organization or medical school.
