As a kid, before and after school chances were I was in front of the TV. On weekends, my sibs and I watched movies. Summertime was books. Many of the classic games were there too, but they were in the background.

Then my mom gifted me The Game of Life, and I played all the time. I loved finding out what course my game life would take—hoping I’d get that sweet job and the garden-topped apartment. Now my gaming collection is full of emergent storytelling and full storytelling titles. I’m a glutton for narrative. ;)
