Is it better to play a game or not?
The forthcoming adventure game Storyteller from publisher Annapurna and developer Daniel Benmergui seems like an inventive new spin on video game storytelling. There are always exciting new ways to blend interaction with narrative in games.
The game comes up to its moniker in the new teaser we saw at the Annapurna Interactive Showcase since it puts the player in the role of a playwright. Don't worry, you can create a compelling tale by using storyline and character fragments rather than words. With its charming visual aesthetic that pays homage to Shakespeare's influences, Storyteller seems to be a simple yet very powerful experience.
Although a release date for Storyteller is not yet known, it will be available on PC and Nintendo Switch. There's a demo that may be played right now on Steam.
