These are essentially journalism in an alternative media (rather like photo journalism is): telling a news story through a game rather than a traditional linear narrative. e.g. You are a detainee in Guantanamo Bay and are innocent of the crimes of which you have been accused. Your mission is to get out by any means possible. The point the journalist wants to make is conveyed as the player discovers which, if any, techniques (reasoning, bribery, tunnelling, disguises) are successful, and which result in failure. -- Toby A Inkster <mailto:mail@tobyinkster.co.uk> <http://tobyinkster.co.uk>
