NarraScope Showcase 2026

Designers, developers, writers, and students of narrative games and interactive fiction were invited to submit digital game projects to the 2026 NarraScope Showcase. The NarraScope Showcase celebrates the best in narrative game design and interactive fiction.

NarraScope hopes to encourage the exploration and proliferation of narrative games and interactive fiction as a form through this event. Like NarraScope’s presentations, the Showcase focuses on freedom and creativity in the field of digital narrative game design and development. All genres, styles, and formats of games are welcome, including those which are experimental in nature or defy traditional classification.

Work made in whole, or in part, utilizing LLMs or other AI technology as an engine for content generation was to be disqualified from the selection process.

(IFDB does not record all of the showcase entrants.)
