Plain-Language Summary
The goal is to reduce falls and improve walking and balance in people with Parkinson's whose gait and balance problems do not get better with levodopa. At home, participants use interactive serious games that guide repetitive balance and walking exercises, give real-time feedback and motivation, and aim to retrain posture and stepping patterns; this is a non-drug add-on and medications like levodopa are kept unchanged. Eligible people are adults 18 and older with idiopathic Parkinson's who still have gait or freezing despite levodopa, have had at least two falls in the past year, have stable Parkinson medications and an internet connection at home, while those with severe immobility, moderate to severe dementia, no internet, or other major exclusions are not eligible.
