This paper presents GenVirtual, which is an augmented reality musical game and is proposed to help people with learning disabilities. The intention is to help the patient in the following skills: creativity, attention, memory (storage and retrieval), planning, concentration, ready-response, hearing and visual perception, and motor coordination. The therapist has flexibility to place the musical and visual elements, allowing him to create different scenarios to each patient. GenVirtual uses Augmented Reality technology to allow people with physical disorders to interact with the game. Patients with no fingers can also play this game. GenVirtual was evaluated by a music therapist who considered it as a facilitating and motivating game to the learning process and that it has the potential to improve the life of the people with special needs.
