“…There were some instances in the literature of basic web developer languages having been employed in recent IF projects, specifically making use of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP to deliver stories hosted online. In one paper, a domain-specific-language called HEXIFE was developed as an extension of HTML5 with an IF-specific markup and support through a runtime environment based on HTML, PHP, CSS, MySQL, and JavaScript (Gómez-Albarrán et al, 2021). One project made use of ILSAditor, a digital editing tool, which would output a finalized IF project in a web-oriented format (HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript) (Diez-Sanmartín et al, 2020).…”

This systematic literature review investigated 10 years of scholarly literature (2012-2022) referencing “interactive fiction” (IF) and “text adventure” within educational or learning contexts.  A systematic review protocol containing the following steps was adopted: a) database search with parameters; b) full-text article screening; c) data extraction; and d) thematic analysis.  Seven unique themes emerged from a thematic analysis of 63 high-quality scholarly articles: a) the immersive aspects of “YOU”; b) IF as a creative writing medium; c) improving reading literacy through IF; d) history instruction facilitated through IF; e) learning technology through IF; f) introducing complex topics and issues through IF; and g) building a community around IF.  Results of this study suggest that reading and writing in the nonlinear tradition results in rich, multidisciplinary learning outcomes.  Educators across disciplines are encouraged to consider ways in which they might integrate IF into their curricula to take advantage of the unique and broad benefits of practice.

Both physical and cultural aspects are important for urban areas. In the context of urban space involving cultural resources, the application of augmented reality (AR) could physically integrate cultural resources into the physical facilities of the city. In this paper, the narrative approach is introduced to the construction of an urban cultural scene based on AR technology. Following the collection of historical materials about the Bund in Shanghai in the 1920s and 1930s, this study creates the characters and events in a non-fictional way, organizing a series of narrative elements around themes based on real historical contexts. This is in line with AR, a technology that superimposes virtual information in the real world. As part of this non-fictional narrative design, the author has chosen suitable characters as ‘avatars’ to observe and experience the development of the narrative from a first-person perspective. A participatory viewing can be brought about by adopting a non-fictional approach, rather than a simple information transfer and passive reception. The result is that instead of the traditional guide centric model, a multi-path tour model is created. In conclusion, this paper believes that the use of AR technology can link the narrative to the region more directly and closely. Further, a new cultural scene is created that allows visitors to have an immersive experience. AR technology provides a narrative perspective based on regional knowledge that reinforces and represents the image of the region in a cohesive way.
