Storytelling that occurs through movement and exploration of an environment.


This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

The Bioshock series, as well as Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas all provide places where things and effects on the environment give hints of what has happened earlier. In many cases there are related things and effects in other places of the game world, and players that find these can piece together possible narratives.
