看圖解釋ARGs 幾個相關遊戲名詞

在wiki有介紹一些跟另類實境遊戲ARG相關的術語
  • Puppetmaster - an individual involved in designing and/or running an ARG. Helping or hindering, puppetmasters generally remain behind the curtain while a game is running.
    操偶師: 像李天祿就是布袋戲操偶師，《戲夢人生》的英文就是翻The Puppetmaster。用很簡單的英文解釋就是the real leader that calls all the shots。在這個ARG中，指設計或經營ARG者，通常就是「藏鏡人」，身份神秘，跟隨者可能不認識他。記得有次看一個犯罪美劇，就是要逮捕這個藏鏡人，但是此人網路身份成謎。
  • The Curtain - a metaphor for the separation between the puppetmasters and the players.
    看下圖虛線處，可以比較瞭解這個抽象意思。
  • Rabbithole/trailhead - Also known as a Trailhead. A Rabbithole marks the first website, contact, or puzzle that starts off the ARG. A deliberate clue which enables a player to discover a way into the game.
    兔洞/線索頭：我想這個兔洞典故應該來自是「愛麗斯夢遊仙境」，含意就是掉入另一個世界。在ARG指一些接觸點透過特意設計的線索，啟動了ARG。
  • This Is Not A Game (TINAG) - Setting the ARG form apart from other games is the This Is Not A Game aesthetic, which dictates that the game not behave like a game: phone numbers mentioned in the ARG, for example, should actually work, and the game should not provide an overtly-designated playspace or ruleset to the players.
    跟一般遊戲不一樣的地方是：ARG不是遊戲。這還真是難懂的界定。由於強調真實，所以ARG中給的電話號碼必須是真的。
