Linear Narrative

Linear Narrative is the simplest narrative form. The stories are straightforward with a definite beginning and end. The stories are structured in a way that one node is connected to another. There is no interconnection happening with other nodes. This means players must follow all instructions to progress in the storyline. There is no ability to change the narrative. Players have some capability to explore but once again it does not correlate with the narrative. Players often feel confined by this game’s structure since they must play according to the storyline.
