Abstract
The premise of this research project is to exemplify how literary fiction can be more immersive and interactive. In an attempt to achieve this feat, the concept of Gamification will be used in this project. Gamification is the use of game design elements and game principles in non game contexts. Doing so, the project will use a video game, external sources, and design themes. Minecraft Classic will be used to demonstrate how the use of a video games alongside written pieces of work can encourage problem solving skills, social skills and creativity. In other words, a story will be written and following that, the user can use the video game to complete the objects from the story.
