Ideation to Reality

Imagine playing a character in your mind through virtual reality.

The character isn’t real, but the studio does it artificially by outlining attributes with particular traits. Whereby the scriptwriting methodology could help achieve this in gaming.

There is a famous Indian proverb, “Tell me a fact, I’ll learn. Tell me the truth, and I’ll believe. But tell me a story, and it will live in my heart forever”.

Psychology had demonstrated that stories are a natural mode of thinking, which was initially used for education before the current education system was set up. Hence, storytelling is a powerful way to convey information, thereby giving meaning to characters or games. The benefits of storytelling help convey your message leading to below:

a) Keep the audience engaged as those games that use storytelling are infinitely more engaging than those that don’t.

b) Help in increasing reach as people are more likely to share your content with others if they connect well with your story.

c) Makes it memorable as people retain information from visual images for much longer than text, giving the longevity in your audience’s mind.

Current online games are more focused towards the use of the ability, thereby partially or entirely ignoring the narration. This situation leads to the lack of association with the background or origin of the characters. Hence, limiting its conversion amongst players. However, few occasions inspire players to associate themselves with characters when linked to a movie, series, or novel.

Wharf Street Studios is excited to launch its first in-house game i.e., Epiko Regal. A brawler, driven by AI and blockchain (soon), where players collect cards and duel online. It is inspired from legends of the east with a western feel to give an epic experience to players worldwide. the citation of Wharf Street Studios would enable players to benefit with a rewarding mechanism using strategic community building.
