Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.    With Them Front Lines is a game designed by gamers for gamers…with a bit of a twist.   The co-founders of the company, ORE Systems, include military veterans who are telling their stories…and the stories of other veterans as part of the game play.    Managing Partner Shawn Piatz..says the aim is to promote mental health among veterans….

“ The thing we’re doing that’s different from other people is we’re using real characters in real situations.  Our intention is to put into it medical therapeutics.  We have some custom algorithms and wearables that we’re integrating inside of the game, opt in only, that will create a data set for researchers to understand what the triggers are for PTSD and some of the other things veterans suffer from over time.”

And hopefully…be able to help.   Learn more at www.withthem.co.
