In a recent survey, conducted by 2023 Essential Facts About the US Video Game Industry, they found that 90% of gamers say video games relieve stress and provide mental stimulation. They also found that 70% of gamers say games could be used for medical treatment and agree there are benefits in addressing mental health and isolation. Most medical games focus on surgery, such as Surgeon Simulator, or on bacteria, such as Microbe Invader.
