  4. Past Projects / Inspiration Police Quest, LA Noire • Video games where you collect clues and interrogate suspects to solve smaller cases, with larger overarching story

  5. The Story Premise • Players are part of a fictional police task force assigned to investigate organized drug crimes • They will use video surveillance and wiretaps to gather evidence against individuals in one specific organization • The project will work as its own narrative, a tie-in to a police drama TV show, and a contest World • The story takes place in New York City, with the characters’ fiction related through recorded phonecalls, video, and live events • Players will be part of the story, as they take on the role of detectives within the world Character Stories • Since the project is contest-based, and appeals to players’ enjoyment of the game itself (gathering evidence, receiving rewards, and competing/collaborating), the story won’t be the primary focus • Instead, the story will be used to draw players in as they listen to the surveillance media • The story will mostly be told through subplots for groups of characters that players can piece together while viewing/listening

  6. Characters Character Stories • ~8-10 characters • Head of the task force/police captain will give video briefings each week • Character-centered stories that are relatable in some way • One story will focus on young teenagers at the lowest level of the organization • Another will be about a member who’s just been promoted, and is conflicted about having to commit crimes against innocent people

  7. The Contest Website Sections • Bulletin Board • Players can rearrange photo cards on the bulletin board to map out the organization’s hierarchy • Here, they can assign evidence to individual suspects • Video Surveillance • Players can watch video camera footage during live events or review previously recorded video • They can select sections of video or still images to use as evidence • Wiretap • Players can listen to phone calls that happen live or review previously recorded audio • They can select sections of audio to cut out and use as evidence • Database • Community aspect, where players can use evidence gathered by other agents, giving them the credit for it and increasing that agent’s score • Players can form task forces/groups with their friends to pool evidence, divide up time checking the website
