Story Builder: Games is a Key Stage 3 resource from our ever-popular suite of ready-to-use pupil-facing Story Builder activity packs.
Developed in consultation with BAFTA and the Family Gaming Database, the resource supports young people to develop their own game ideas and narratives, which they can then enter into the upcoming BAFTA Young Game Designers competition.
Whatever the subject, you can use Story Builder: Games to apply learners’ knowledge of game narratives and structure to curricular topics and develop cross-curricular literacy skills through a tried and tested framework for students and create stories for a curricular-focused game. Learners will create characters, relevant settings, meaningful stories and more, all based on their research and understanding of their focus area.

We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.
