Uncovering PowerWash Simulator's wellbeing boost through research

Earlier this year, we were delighted to announce that our collaboration with the Oxford University Internet Institute showed that 72% of players have an uplift in their mood while playing PowerWash Simulator.

To highlight these findings and provide insight into our partnership with the Oxford Internet Institute, we've joined forces once again to create this video. It explores how the study was conducted, its methodology, and the key takeaways from the research.

In this first-of-its-kind study, players volunteered to participate in research by donating their PowerWash Simulator play data and regularly reporting their mood in the game. The study concluded in March 2023, after an overwhelmingly positive participation rate, with over 8,695 players from 39 countries worldwide.
