Add a screenshot of your typing practice to your slide for today.

Part One:
Research includes Examples

Another rather well known example is Lost Pig. 

Search for the Lost Pig Interactive Fiction and try it out.
You don't have to finish it, just play with it enough to get a feel for the experience.

What are your thoughts on Lost Pig?
Create a document for today and tell me about what you think of Lost Pig.

Part Two:
Find your own Examples

Check a few other examples of interactive fiction. This link may also be useful.
These two links are specifically focused on examples that are more appropriate for all audiences.
A few other note-worthy historical examples: Oregon Trail & The Hobbit
Some people argue Oregon Trail is interactive fiction, others argue it isn't.
I'm ok with either opinion really, although I lean more toward saying it isn't.

Keep in mind, this is a creative medium similar to books, games, movies, music, shows, etc.
It may not be as popular, but just like in other mediums, there's lots of different topics, creators,
and some works may not be appropriate for all ages.

In your document, tell me about 3 different ones you found and your thoughts on them.

Part Three:

Other Tools

A lot of modern interactive fiction exports into HTML or some similar type of digital text document. As such, these can be displayed in different ways, and people have created different tools to make the experience potentially more enjoyable. Check out Parchmap.

Try Lost Pig in Parchmap.
