In this fun and informative YA Non-fiction title, Dustin Hansen,
author of Game On!, a self-confessed video game addict with over
20-years experience in the gaming industry, examines the storytelling
skills shown in some of the most beloved and moving games of all time.
We all know that video games are fun, but can a video game make you cry?
Can it tell you a powerful love story? Can a video game make you think
differently about war? About the environment? About the choices you
make?
Whether it's playing through blockbuster-esque adventures (Uncharted,
God of War, The Last of Us), diving deep into hidden bits of story and
lore (Red Dead Redemption II, Bioshock, Journey) or building
relationships that change the fate of the world itself (Persona 5,
Undertale), video games are bringing stories to life in ways that are
immediate, interactive and immersive.
Focusing on some of the best, most memorable, experiences in gaming,
The Greatest Stories Ever Played, examines the relationship between
gaming and storytelling in a new way.
