EPISODE 64 This week the Geeks interview Steve Peters from 42 Entertainment, one of the leading experts in Alternate Reality Games (or ARGs) - or interactive stories which unfold themselves over multi-communication platforms such as internet, newspaper, billboards, TV, phones, etc. These stores often involve massive groups of people coordinating their efforts to unlock the story. Steve discusses his experiences both as a player of ARGs (I Love Bees) and as a designer of ARGS (Project Mu: Metacortechs and Last Call Poker). Steve gives us some insight into how the designers think when creating these games, and some of the pitfalls some of the current games are facing. Also this week, Geek Mail! Find out what some of your fellow Geeks have had to say about our past episodes! All this Geeky goodness and more here on Geekson!
