ABSTRACT

Storytelling is a magical and powerful craft. Not only can it transport the audience on a thrilling journey into an imaginary world, but it can also reveal the dark secrets of human behavior or inspire the audience with the desire to do noble deeds. One major aspect of digital storytelling that distinguishes it from classical storytelling is that members of the audience can become active players in the narrative and even have a direct impact on it. The ancient Egyptians also held religious rituals based on their mythology. Over time, they evolved into staged performances, with actors playing the role of various gods. The earliest games were developed not for idle amusement but for serious purposes: often to prepare young men for the hunt and for warfare. By taking part in games, the youths would strengthen their bodies and develop athletic skills like running and throwing.
