Interested in creating your own games for instruction and outreach, or hosting a game-making session for patrons or students? In this Learn & Play, Amber Sewell will introduce participants to the interactive storytelling game platform Twine, give examples of how this dynamic tool can be used for a variety of instruction and programming projects, and walk participants through designing, prototyping, and creating their own games in Twine. Participants will have access to a shared folder in Google Drive with additional resources and the ability to upload the games they’ve created to share with others.

Amber Sewell is a Teaching and Learning Librarian at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. She is interested in games and storytelling
