USING TWINE
• Interactive story from the point of view of an archaeologist hired
by Mussolini to excavate the Curia Julia
• Will have to deal with pressure from the church and Mussolini
• Be careful what you do or say, you might just disappear
•
Easy to use, but took a while to figure out
• Thank God for YouTube…
PROBLEMS…
• Only real problem is that my concept might be too linear for Twine
• Slight bias
• And it takes a degree of creativity
