Isabel Lilly contacted me about developing an outdoor gaming project using mobile technology in 2007, as a result of experiencing my "TXT for Treasure" game, Dr Zoogle's Bestiary, part of that year's London Games Festival Fringe.
Over a year later, Stream (http://www.streamarts.org.uk/) had secured Arts Council funding for a one-day gaming event based at the Greenwich Heritage Centre on 25 July 2009.
The brief - (i) to hold a participatory art event that would engage the local community with the Woolwich Arsenal site and (ii) to enable people to find out about their local history in an entertaining and playful way.
QUOTE from INFORM http://inform7.com/
Because the reader moves from place to place, an interactive fiction reveals its secrets a little at a time: it cannot be read from cover to cover, and sometimes its hidden corners remain undiscovered for years.
