NarraScope 2022 was an online-only event that supports interactive narrative, adventure games, and interactive fiction by bringing together writers, developers, and players.
NarraScope 2022 took place on the Gather platform. For information on using Gather, please see our accessibility page.
NarraScope first took place in 2019, live at MIT. In 2020, Narrascope was fully online, and for 2021 we skipped a year. Our conference aims to be a place for everyone interested in narrative games to hang out, exchange ideas and get inspired. We do this through a broad selection of talks, keynote speakers, discussions and workshops.
Subjects vary from interactive fiction tools to writing best practices and everything in between; previous talks had titles like 'Writing Gender in Historical Narratives', 'Shaping Your Story with Emotional Intelligence' and 'Adapting Film’s Techniques for Nonlinear Stories', to give you a bit of an idea. The NarraScope History site lists everything we did over the past years.
