The study set out to examine how using a different type of narrative, the epiphanic structure, compares to the hero’s journey in both non-interactive as well as interactive writing. Earlier studies about different narrative structures were examined as well as reasons for how the hero’s journey has become used to such a high degree that many other structures are barely known by many people. An artifact was created that included four versions of a similar narrative. Two were interactive and the other two were not. Out of each of the two groups, one variant followed the hero’s journey and the other followed the epiphanic narrative structure. Three participants were invited to interact with the artifact and an interview/discussion was held with them each individually. All three of the participants expressed similar opinions about the four narrative variants and agreed that the epiphanic structure felt interesting and provided surprising additional insight.
