     The fifth edition of the Digital Festival LudoNarraCon is back and it promises to be bigger and better than ever. The festival is all about story-telling and narrative and it kicks off today, May 4th, at 10am PT/6pm BST and runs until next Monday, May 8th. Hosted on Steam, the festival features 36 demos, discounts on over 140 games, and 15 panels that will be livestreamed.

     Highlights of this year’s festival include three ‘fireside chats’ with Ron Gilbert of Monkey Island fame, the designer of the OPUS series Scott Chen, and Life Is Strange: True Color’s staff writer Felice Tzehuei, who’s sitting down to chat with our lovely reviews editor Rachel. More than 43 games will be exhibited over the next few days, showing off behind-the-scenes footage from already-released gems and upcoming titles. The list includes RPS favourites such as the dystopian point-and-clicker Norco, multiplayer monarchy sim King Of The Castle, and historical detective ‘em up The Case Of The Golden Idol. Fans can also look forward to new looks from upcoming releases, most notably with Don’t Nod’s dimension-hopping Harmony: The Fall Of Reverie, and magical dating sim Wrestling With Emotions.

     In addition to the demos and panels, indie publisher Fellow Traveller is celebrating the announcement of Times And Galaxy, an interplanetary reporter game with a demo out now, and the first anniversary of Citizen Sleeper, which they published last year. The publisher is also teasing a “major announcement” about Suzerain later today, so fans of political scheming should keep their eyes peeled.

With 36 demos, discounts on over 140 games, and 15 panels, there’s something for everyone. The festival runs from today (May 4th) until Monday (May 8th), and you can see the whole thing on Steam.
