BA4 - Brief Introduction

In this brief, we'll be looking at the role of the story world within games and its importance. It will also look at the development of digital games from narrative-based games to Alternate Reality Games and MMORPG's.

During this brief, we will gain more of an understanding of coherent worlds, genre and narrative theory. We will be looking into things like transmedia storytelling, where digital games are only one part of the story world.

In the end, we will present a 10 minute presentation on the subject, with accompanying documentation.
