About scenes How they link together

Entire Game  

Legend:  Begins when play begins;  can begin whenever some condition holds;  follows when a previous scene ends;  begins simultaneously;  never begins;  never ends;  recurring (can happen more than once). Scene names are italicised when and if they appear for a second or subsequent time because the scene can begin in more than one way.


The Entire Game scene  recurring

The Entire Game scene is built-in. It is going on whenever play is going on. (It is recurring so that if the story ends, but then resumes, it too will end but then begin again.)

Begins when: the story has not ended

Ends when: the story has ended
