Fictions, immersive games, free reading

Answer 1

Immersive novel games were a type of game that deeply integrated novel elements with game mechanics, allowing players to be deeply immersed in it.

A visual novel game was a typical example of this type of game. It was a branch of the adventure genre of the AVG. It focused on the plot and had almost zero gameplay. It could be seen as a derivative of an audio book. For example, Late Ming: A Hungry Man's Thousand Miles Journey had sold more than 400,000 copies in two months, and the Steam rating was as high as 97%. There were also masterpieces such as Street, 428, The Gate of the Fate Stone, and The Hidden Crimson Road. The key factors included the plot as the core, the narration in a literary novel style, and the game's controls were not complicated except for watching the dialogue and choosing options at critical moments. For example, the "Reversal Judge" series and the "Limit Escape" series did not belong to the visual novel genre because they had puzzle solving and exploration elements.

In addition, there were some ghost story games with rules that had elements of suspense and reasoning. By setting a series of rules to create an atmosphere full of suspense, the players had to explore, reason, and solve puzzles in the game world according to the rules, thus promoting the development of the story, making the players feel as if they were in the plot of a novel.

In addition, in simulation games such as "Love Game," the player played the role of a character through a series of events and choices to promote the development of the plot, experience the process of love, and also have a certain sense of immersion in the novel. There were also games driven by artificial intelligence such as Emel, where users interacted with the artificial intelligence to perform a variety of activities, including psychological tests and philosophical thought experiments similar to those in novels, creating a sense of immersion during the interaction. Virtual reality games such as "Ghost Simulator" allowed players to play as family members of a haunted house. They used virtual reality technology to explore the haunted house, interact with the ghosts, and unlock the secrets, immersing themselves in the story of the game.
