Abstract
The creation of the Medical Brain Teasers arose from the recognition of students' struggles in grasping complex terminologies, particularly in medicine subjects, such as human biology, anatomy, basic genetics, and much more. The primary aim of this innovative product is to boost students' memorization and retention of challenging concepts and terminologies by merging elements of the classic board game with the cerebral stimulation of a crossword puzzle. This board game combines a physical board game and a digital crossword puzzle. The questions are generated from QR codes. Medical Brain Teasers has potential commercialization from lecturers' perspective because the questions are online generated and can be authored and customized easily. Medical Brain Teasers fosters not only academic growth but also enhances psychomotor skills, communication skills, and soft skills that are increasingly fading among this technological generation. Moreover, Medical Brain Teasers as an educational tool comes in handy and user-friendly. As the size is just as small as a notebook and noticeably lightweight, this board game can be carried everywhere. Additionally, the equipment needed are the board game, a few tokens, and QR scanner to scan the questionnaire. It is suitable for all levels of medical students as an educational tool in tutorial sessions and revision sessions among students.
