“Serious games” is a game category that involves training and entertainment, so that the user interacts with the machine in a more playful way without losing training which is the activitiés focus. This article presents the development of a "serious game" that seeks to assist physical therapy sessions in the treatment of deficit of strength and movements range using the musical instrument drums as a resource. The game is in the process of prototyping and it intents to combine the game with song so that the patient can perform the treatment in a funnier and more motivating way.
