Abstract: Narrative games can be useful for learning. Here, we compare an interactive narrative game (related to neuron communication) to textbook-style presentation of equivalent information with regard to students’ immediate and long-term retention of information, and enjoyment. We will share our workflow documents to aid others with creating their own games.
