Games That Tell Stories
from Techdirt · host Techdirt
Gaming is changing the nature of storytelling. Video games of course — but also the modern rise of board games, tabletop RPGs and other forms of analog gaming.

This week, we're joined by game designer Randy Lubin to discuss how games can tell stories in a way nothing else can.
