Starting with the concept of participation time, which is taken from the interactive media, the now classic concepts of the narratology of flm studies are applied to clarify the main mutual infuences between the two media in relation to narrative time. Unlike the cinema, the narrative character of video games is not always clear. Generally, video games are always games and ofen also stories. Certainly, the playable character of these stories confers on them a few specifc characteristics that need to be explored. Two aspects of narrative time are relevant here.
