Transmediale historier

Noen eksempler på transmediale historier: “Inside the box [som rommet et dataspill på begynnelsen av 1980-tallet], game instruction manuals also attempted to add exciting narrative contexts to the games, no matter how far-fetched they were.

Several games that were more abstract in their design, like Centipede (1982) and Yars’ Revenge (1981), even came packaged with small comic books that set up the narrative that was supposedly continued in the game.” (Wolf og Perron 2003 s. 59)

”Delta Green is a role-playing game, [...] its narrative exists within an even broader narrative that weaves its way through not just role-playing games but also novels, television series, film, computer games, and many other forms of media.” (Harrigan og Wardrip-Fruin 2009 s. 77)

Den amerikanske science fiction-forfatteren RayBradbury bidro til et dataspill i 1984-86, Telariums Fahrenheit 451 (1986), der Bradbury skrev en innledende historie som begynner der hans egen roman fra 1953 ender (Lischka 2002 s. 76).
