What is the primary purpose of a flowchart?

• A. To illustrate character relationships.
• B. To define the sequence of actions in interactive media products and map response flows.
• C. To manage project timelines.
• D. To store asset records.

Answer: (B)

Flowcharts capture the sequence of actions and how the system responds to user input in an interactive product. By showing each step or screen, the decisions that branch the path, and the resulting transitions, they lay out the user journey and the logic that drives navigation. This makes it easier to plan how users move through the product, spot dead ends or loops, and communicate the intended behavior to developers and testers. Other tools described are used for storytelling, scheduling, or asset management, not for mapping how actions lead to different responses in an interactive experience.
