ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to methods and systems for reenacting historical scenarios in a computer controlled data base and operating system wherein roles are segregated and processed to permit intervention of interactive role players for modifying the reenacted scenarios in accordance with their reactions and decisions on line as they view the scenarios. In this way, the role players get involved personally in the historical events reenacted to make the action and results more memorable, interesting and understandable. Different roles may be chosen to match the skills, capabilities and interest of the role players. The role players input decisions are substituted in the reenactment to conform with or change the course of history and feedback is provided to inform the role player of the impact introduced. Thus, grading or evaluation records for role players may be produced. The system may be simplistic enough for a single role player at a personal computer to order down a historical scene, select a roll and view the reenactment while participating in the selected role. Alternatively, the system may involve teams of players, such as classes, competition between players and interaction of several players in more complex systems. The role players may be at a single site such as a theme park or arcade, or may be networked from a set of different sites.
