Danger Close by WILL Interactive, Inc.
Danger Close is a serious gaming program created for the US Army which utilizes patented interactive virtual experience VEILS technology. This immersive program allows young soldiers to practice real-life high risk wartime decision making in the safety of cyberspace. Based on lessons learned in Iraq and Afghanistan, this program allows users to become lead characters in an interactive movie that mirrors pre-deployment, deployment and in-combat operations. Users become Second Lieutenant Paul Oakes and Sergeant First Class David Shaw. You “walk a mile in their shoes”. Trainees must make the pivotal decisions that alter their storyline and outcome. Your fate and the fate of your troops hinge on every decision you make as you proceed through your deployment. Danger Close goes far beyond traditional programs that employ simple cognitive instruction. By drawing in the user and addressing the emotional, slice-of-life impact of being a soldier, Danger Close taps the elusive affective domain of learning, creating educable moments that truly stick.
Danger Close covers many topics, including leadership, teamwork and the importance of working relationships to the overall success of the mission. When feedback includes soldiers on the ground in Iraq that state ‘Thank you, you are saving lives’ you know that you are truly making a difference.
