As I’ve been ruminating on everyone’s thoughts re: local history and games, I can’t help but draw comparisons to Alternate Reality Games (ARG’s), which is sort of like an Role Playing Game (RPG) or MUD, but played out in real life. I think this model has a huge potential, both for digital history and learning (especially locally) and for creative works.

I’d be interested in a session on creating interactive worlds as well- especially exploring the storytelling element and how to draw in users. I am fascinated by the way writers are able to completely draw a person into an alternate world (a talent a good game master for an traditional table top RPG also possesses.) I myself struggle with this.
