The <b>Re-Mission</b> video game for teens and young adults with cancer was released by the nonprofit HopeLab on April 3, 2006. The game is a Microsoft Windows based third-person shooter based in the serious games genre. The game was conceived by Pam Omidyar
 and designed based on HopeLab research, direct input from young cancer 
patients and oncology doctors and nurses, and game developer Realtime Associates,
 among others. The game was designed to engage young cancer patients 
through entertaining game play while impacting specific psychological 
and behavioral outcomes associated with successful cancer treatment.<br />
