Pill Push ER Mobile APP LEARNING GAMES FOR NURSING EXAMS

The Client

With more than 13,000 NCLEX questions in multiple choice and true/false formats, this interactive app is designed to boost your knowledge and test-taking skills. 

Sneak Peak

The Challenge

The NCLEX exam is one of the most rigorous and critical assessments a nursing student must pass to become a licensed nurse. Educators Enlightened recognized that traditional study methods—such as rote memorization and textbook-based learning—often fell short in keeping students engaged and motivated. They saw an opportunity to create a more dynamic and interactive learning experience that could help students absorb vast amounts of information while keeping them focused and motivated to study longer and more effectively.

The challenge was to develop a tool that could transform the NCLEX study process from a stressful, monotonous task into an enjoyable and immersive learning experience. The solution needed to deliver content aligned with the NCLEX standards, engage students through gamification, drive long-term retention of complex material, and foster community and collaboration among users. Educators Enlightened needed a groundbreaking solution for nursing education that had never been done before.

The solution

Enter Pill Push ER, the innovative mobile application developed by Designing Digitally in collaboration with Educators Enlightened. This revolutionary app is designed to address the specific needs of NCLEX exam prep, blending serious gaming mechanics with robust educational content. Available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, Pill Push ER offers nursing students a unique, engaging way to prepare for their exams, turning study hours into an enjoyable and interactive experience.

At its core, Pill Push ER leverages match-three puzzle gameplay—familiar to millions of mobile game players—by incorporating healthcare-themed visuals and mechanics. Players match pills in various puzzles while being presented with NCLEX-style questions that test their knowledge of real-world nursing topics. Correct answers propel the player forward, while wrong answers provide hints and feedback, ensuring that learning happens in real time. As students advance through the game, they unlock progressively more complex maps, each designed to mirror the increasing difficulty of the NCLEX exam itself.

The app features a dynamic content management system (CMS) that allows administrators to update and modify content easily. This ensures that the questions, levels, and study tips align with the latest NCLEX guidelines and evolving healthcare topics. Administrators can quickly add new learning topics, questions, levels, hints, and tricks, making Pill Push ER a living, breathing educational tool that evolves with the curriculum.

One of Pill Push ER’s most innovative aspects is the integration of a digital currency system. Students earn in-game coins based on their performance in gameplay and exam questions. The digital currency is used to access power-ups that help them progress through the game, such as expanding question pools or gaining extra hints. This gamified reward system keeps users engaged and incentivizes consistent study behavior and skill-building.

Pill Push ER goes even further by fostering a sense of community through relative leaderboards. Users can create profiles, including details such as their school and location, and compete against other students in their vicinity or across the globe. The leaderboards allow players to see their rankings compared to their peers, driving healthy competition and building a supportive community of learners. This combination of competition and collaboration motivates students to outperform, moving them toward academic success in a way no traditional method could achieve.

ill Push ER has fundamentally transformed how students prepare for the NCLEX exam, redefining the future of educational technology in the healthcare sector. By gamifying the study process, the app has created a paradigm shift in how nursing students approach exam preparation, moving away from static, book-driven study methods to a dynamic, interactive, and highly engaging learning experience. Early users have reported significantly increased studying time, thanks to the app’s enjoyable interface and better knowledge retention due to its progressive difficulty and real-time feedback.

Thanks to its dynamic CMS, the app’s ability to grow and adapt over time ensures that Pill Push ER remains relevant and valuable to nursing students for years to come. Educators Enlightened can offer students a resource that evolves with the changing landscape of nursing education by consistently adding new levels, questions, and study content.

Students compete not only with themselves to earn more coins and advance further but also with their peers locally and globally, driving healthy competition and a supportive community of learners.

You can find the application in the Apple Store and the Google Play Store for download.
