What is a narrative game?

A narrative game is, essentially, a conversation. Each player has a character sheet that represents a person in the game world. The player's role is to think about how their character acts and to play that role. The game master is a narrator who guides the characters through the story, plays the other inhabitants of the world and reacts to the players' actions. The game master also mediates whenever dice need to be rolled. No knowledge of the games or previous experience is required. At the start of each session there is an explanation of the game system and the character sheet, with room to answer questions.
