Narrative Gaming

Narrative gaming refers to video games that prioritize storytelling, character development, and immersive plots alongside gameplay. Unlike traditional games focused mainly on mechanics or combat, narrative games emphasize creating compelling stories that players can influence through their choices. These games often feature rich dialogues, moral dilemmas, and branching storylines, allowing players to shape the outcome of the story. The goal is to engage players emotionally and intellectually, making the experience feel like an interactive story or adventure rather than just a game. Examples include titles like "The Witcher," "Life is Strange," and "Disco Elysium."
