The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox

Editat de Tobias Heussner
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 aug 2026
The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox 2nd Edition is an updated version of The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox, continuing where The Game Narrative Toolbox left off. While the Game Narrative Toolbox covered the basics of writing and narrative design for games, The Advanced Game Narrative Toolbox will cover techniques and approaches for the intermediate and professional writer. The book will cover topics such as how to adapt a novel to a game, how to construct transmedia worlds, and how to bring your content into the game. The second edition adds a chapter on the Unreal Engine, how to work with material for children, and how to overcome and work with communication biases. Each chapter is written by a professional with exceptional experience in the field of the chapter and ends with an exercise encouraging you to try out what you learned.
Key Features:
  • Learn from industry experts how to tackle today’s challenges in storytelling for games
  • A learn by example and exercise approach, which was praised in the Game Narrative Toolbox and the 1st edition
  • An in-depth view of advanced storytelling techniques and topics, and how to bring them into a game
  • Expand your knowledge in game writing as you learn and try for yourself to design quests, write romances, build worlds, and implement them as you would as a writer or narrative designer in a game studio
  • Improve your own stories by learning and trying techniques used by professionals of game writing
