Story Tree
Article Abstract:
Story Tree is a software package which allows users to create adventure games. Through the use of a simple command structure and a word processor, children aged nine years and up can write stories of up to 100 pages. A manual and tutorial provide the necessary instructions, with a sample story, of how to create a flowchart, write instructions, and how to finish. Although this program is simple, the games effectively promote writing skills and creativity.
