商品描述

The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox, 2nd Edition, is an updated version of The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox, continuing where The Game Narrative Toolbox left off. While The Game Narrative Toolbox covered the basics of writing and narrative design for games, The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox covers techniques and approaches for the intermediate and professional writers. This book covers topics such as how to adapt a novel to a game, how to construct transmedia worlds, and how to bring your content into the game. The second edition adds chapters on Unreal Engine, how to work with material for children, and how to overcome and work with communication biases. Each chapter is written by a professional with exceptional experience in the field and ends with an exercise encouraging you to try out what you learned.

Key Features:

  • Helps learn from industry experts how to tackle today's challenges in storytelling for games.
  • Discusses a learn-by-example and exercise-based approach, which was praised in The Game Narrative Toolbox and the first edition.
  • Provides an in-depth view of advanced storytelling techniques and topics, and how to bring them into a game.
  • Expands your knowledge in game writing as you learn and try for yourself to design quests, write romances, build worlds, and implement them as you would as a writer or narrative designer in a game studio.
  • Improves your own stories by learning and trying techniques used by professionals of game writing.
