33. Writing Games Without Stories

from Game State · host Game State Podcast

Game writers Emma Kidwell and Harrison Pink join us to explore the craft of storytelling in so-called 'non-narrative' games. We dig into how narrative sneaks into titles that aren't built around plot, and why every game tells a story whether it means to or not.
