Abstract:
Interactive digital storytelling (IDS) aims at generating dramatically compelling stories based on the user’s input. During the two decades of research, IDS has promised to change the way computer games tell stories. This chapter reviews the theory behind IDS as well as the current state of IDS research and studies whether – and how – IDS can improve storytelling in computer games.
