My favorite games:
Embedded narrative — The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the many clues and memories Link finds.
Emergent narrative — Minecraft for how it allows players to create their player’s own stories.
Enacted narrative — Total War for how it takes the player through historical events by allowing them to replay them.
Evoked narrative — Sea of Thieves, a pirate game where players can form pirate crews together.
