Ever wonder what it would be like to write a game? Ever wonder what it would feel like to work on a game production? Looking for a game writing challenge to engage your students or employees? Want to write the next blockbuster? Game Play: The Game Writing Workshop™ is a series of lectures and activities especially catered for teachers to stimulate and inspire creativity in the classroom or on the job. This workshop discusses: The Thing about Stories and The Thing about Games. A game story is all about interactivity. Interactivity is a magical thing that places the audience right in the middle of the action, personalizes story and forces writers to reconsider, re-evaluate and repurpose classical story design principles to a new powerful, storytelling medium. The Game Writing Workshop™ examines the challenges of designing a story that maximizes interactivity in a highly collaborative environment. As with any skill, writing memorable game stories takes practice, lots of practice.
