Playing Kafka is a video game that explores one of the most famous novels of all time, Franz Kafka’s The Trial, as a narrative adventure that places the audience at the heart of the story.
Playing Kafka, by Czech studio Charles Games, is part of this year’s Games Lounge at the BFI London Film Festival, a free showcase of creative projects playfully looking at alternative storytelling methods and diverse approaches to audience interaction and game design.
