We'll look at three examples of games which exploit the ability of game narrative to work the element of choice -- or the illusion of choice -- into a story: Myst, Chrono Trigger, and possibly Fable (if students are able to access it easily).
If we haven't already, we'll also read Borges's "The Garden of Forking Paths" at this point.

Also, Borges' The Library of Babel seems, if not relevant, like a neat story to read up toward the beginning of the class. Maybe just for the last paragraph.
Agreed. I think Babel will round things out nicely.
