Williamgibson. Colin Cotterill. ARG_Discuss Info Page. About ARG_Discuss Alternate Reality Games use "real life" as the platform. There is no barrier between players' lives and players' gaming, and so inherently no barriers to entry for non-gamers to participate. The mass-market is welcomed into a game where every life-skill helps, not just touch-typing and mastery of the shoulder-buttons. Anyone can join the list, all you need is an interest in ARGs - e.g. their potential, the design and development processes, etc.
Potential ARG developers are especially welcome, as are players interested in the theory and practical challenges of running an ARG. For more in-depth information on ARGs and transmedia, see ARGology.org. You may also like to browse the archives of previous conversations on ARG Discuss.

We also discussed Watergate, but we did that on the deck of Captain Hook’s pirate ship. Little children wearing Mickey Mouse hats — those black hats with the ears — kept running up and bumping against us as the cameras whirred away and Elizabeth asked unexpected questions.
