A compelling story and engaging puzzles do not need to be at odds with one another. We can have both. In fact, there are ways to make puzzle and story build on one another by carefully reducing the competition between them.
Arcturus Wang of Boxaroo in Boston, MA is here to help you weave puzzles and physical interactions into a narrative, positioning players to take actions that create emotion, build energy, and signify intent. They will share their perspective and tools for building the kinds of games that are loved by both diehard puzzlers and story seekers.
