The BoARd Game is a room-scale interactive narrative designed specifically for the Hololens. In this narrative, the player is helping a couple of kids (non-playable characters) to escape a life-threatening board game. The game begins with the kids casting the dice and the game shrinking them to a small size after which they become actual characters in the game. The player will guide the kids through 5 separate puzzles that explore different interactions and designs to the end of the game which resets the world and returns everything back to the normal. The narrative is inspired from "Honey I shrunk the kids" and "Jumanji".
The Prototyping eNarrative Lab (PeN Lab) at Georgia Tech applies digital information design and interaction design principles to digital storytelling to create more complex and expressive narratives, focusing on emerging platforms like experimental television, virtual reality, and augmented reality, and on the intersection of storytelling with game design and simulation design.
