This work presents a game entirely in portuguese for teaching emotional skills to children/adolescents with autism. The game, My gard of Emotions [Meu Jardim de Emoções, in portuguese] is made up of everyday child and adolescent situations, where the player must select the best emotion portrayed in the animation, through the name of the emotion and its respective facial representation. Many of the problems with autistics in detecting emotions are due to their lack of understanding of other views and the realization of the fact that people have different perspectives. In My Garden of Emotion the player is introduced to everyday situations to understand different aspects of emotions and thus improve their quality of life and social interactions.
