Abstract
© Copyright 2014, Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (www.aaai.org). All rights reserved. This paper presents an interactive narrative framework we have designed for games that promote health behavior change. The framework aims to address two key issues: player engagement with the game, and player adherence to the health behavior change-related homework they receive in the game. In this paper, we describe our narrative system that tackles these issues and a prototype game that promotes physical activity in which our narrative system is integrated.
