This pattern is a still a stub.
See Linderoth (2010)[1] for details on how Point of Interest Indications affect how players learn to play games.

Examples
Using the pattern
Point of Interest Indications can be used with all different types of ways of presenting Game Worlds, i.e. First-Person, Third-Person, and God Views.

Narrative Aspects
Consequences
Besides pointing out what can be interacted with in Game Worlds, Point of Interest Indications can draw players' attention to Clues. More generally, Point of Interest Indications can be used to augmented already Diegetically Outstanding Features so that players are extremely unlikely to miss them.
Since Point of Interest Indications can represent perceptual abilities of Characters in games with First-Person Views, the pattern can imply such as well as Player/Character Skill Composites.
