Children with reading and writing difficulties, such as dyslexia, have
been directly affected by the Covid-19 situation because they could not have the
teacher’s face-to-face support. Consequently, new devices and technological applications are being used in educational contexts to improve the interest of learning. This paper presents the design of a Virtual Reality Serious Game called
DixGame. This game is a pedagogical tool specifically oriented to children between 8 and 12 years old with dyslexia. Two immersive mini-games are included
in this game: a Whack-a-mole and a Memory, which try to improve different
skills keeping the children focused on tasks. Whack-a-mole aims to work on the
attention and visual and reading agility by recognizing correct letters and words.
Memory aims to improve memory and attention ability by pairing letter-cards.
The mini-game structure permits to incorporate new levels or games and the progressive increment of difficulty allows the autonomous treatment
