Abstract: This paper addresses the development of the serious game PHOBOS, a virtual reality exposure therapy game for the treatment of blood-injection-injury phobia, also known as hemophobia. The virtual reality game which incorporates biometric sensors was upgraded from a 2018 version to perform usability tests to get the game ready for clinical trials. With this project we expect to contribute to the development of a framework that can be used by physiologists in the treatment of their patients with hemophobia.
