Danielle Riha - Denver CuratorMy favorite use of immersive storytelling is as a fun escape from the terrors of our real world, not leaning into them. Using it as a tool to explore historical events has never resonated with me because my role isn't usually central to the story and interactivity often takes a backseat; it's the performative equivalent of sitting in a history classroom, which I find boring and uninspiring.

But also there's a bunch of mini games. And there's a team goal to earn as much money as you can in the time allotted by playing the easy to learn but often hard to master mini games. But it's still an escape room, kind of. And it's replayable. Oh, and the story changes depending upon if you solve the puzzles or not. Got it?

Happy Holidays: it's one of THOSE No Pro episodes and a good one at that.
