Toward personalized guidance in interactive narratives

چکیده
A drama manager is an omniscient agent responsible for guiding players through the story space and delivering an enjoyable experience to the players. Most drama managers only consider the designer’s intent. We present a drama manager that can provide personalized guidance while giving players the appearance of full agency. Our system is evaluated on an interactive storytelling game built with ChooseYour-Own-Adventure (CYOA) stories. The human study results show that our drama manager can significantly increase the likelihood that players make choices that lead toward intended story plot points.
