Summary of the RETAIN board game and computer game. Healthcare professional is abbreviated as HCP. Neonatal resuscitation program is abbreviated as NRP.

Reference	Participants	Objectives	Study Design	Outcome
Board Game
Cutumisu et. al 2019 [13]	30 neonatal HCPs	Improves short-term knowledge retention	Compared HCPs’ performance on a written simulation scenario before and after playing the game	HCPs knowledge of the correct steps of neonatal resuscitation improved by 12%; biggest improvement in steps of temperature management
Ghoman et. al 2019 [17]	20 neonatal HCPs	Functional as a summative assessment tool	Compared HCPs’ performance on a written simulation scenario to performance on the game	HCPs performed better on the game compared to a traditional assessment, and enjoyed
Computer Game
Bulitko et. al 2015 [18]	Game developers, computer science students, and two neonatologists	Development and Pilot testing	Preliminary observational data collection and pilot play testing sessions of the game	The game was reported as well-received, eliciting stress, clinically valid, engaging, and useful for basic neonatal resuscitation training
Cutumisu et. al 2018 [14]	50 neonatal HCPs	Effect of mindset in moderating performance	Analyzed HCPs’ time elapsed since NRP-training, self-reported growth mindset, and performance on the game	Time since last NRP course predicted number of tries needed to successfully complete the game when moderated by mindset; HCPs with higher growth mindset made fewer mistakes
