商品描述

This remarkably clearly written and timely critical evaluation of core issues in the study and application of interactive digital narrative (IDN) untangles the range of theories and arguments that have developed around IDN over the past three decades.

Looking back over the past thirty years of theorizing around interactivity, storytelling, and the digital across the fields of game design/game studies, media studies, and narratology, but also at interactive documentary and other emerging forms, this text offers important and insightful correctives to common misunderstandings that pervade the field. This book also changes the perspective on IDN by introducing a comprehensive conceptual framework influenced by cybernetics and cognitive narratology, addressing limitations of perspectives originally developed for legacy media forms. Applying its framework, the book analyzes successful works and lays out concrete design advice, providing instructors, students and practitioners with a more precise and specific understanding of IDN.

This will be essential reading for courses in interactive narrative, interactive storytelling and game writing as well as digital media more generally.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書是一本非常清晰且及時的評估互動數位敘事(IDN)核心議題的著作,解開了過去三十年來圍繞IDN發展的各種理論和論點的紛亂。回顧過去三十年來遊戲設計/遊戲研究、媒體研究和敘事學等領域對互動性、故事性和數位領域的理論化探討,以及互動紀錄片和其他新興形式,本書提供了對該領域普遍誤解的重要且有洞察力的糾正。本書還通過引入受控制論和認知敘事學影響的全面概念框架,改變了對IDN的觀點,解決了最初針對傳統媒體形式發展的觀點的局限性。應用這一框架,本書分析了成功的作品並提供具體的設計建議,為教師、學生和從業人員提供了更精確和具體的IDN理解。這本書對於互動敘事、互動故事和遊戲寫作課程以及數位媒體的學習都是必讀之選。
