This study meta-analyzed the effect of 32 research papers on children in academic journals published with domestic degrees and gameplay Therapy programs (2004-2017). As a result, the total effect size was 0.971, a large effect size. The impact scale by variable factor of disabled children, ages 3 to 5 years by age, and the impact scale of psychological variables by dependent variable were reported, with 11 to 15 sessions per process, total number of sessions 16 times or more, session count per week, and session count 61 to 90 minutes. The biggest research is meaningful in that it is the first comprehensive and objective analysis of gameplay Therapy programs and is expected to be used as basic data in treatment design when performing gameplay Therapy programs on clinical sites.
