What if life as we know it was just a game?

What if instead of traditional schools, children learned by participating in a virtual reality simulation, one that allowed them to experience "life" from birth to death - multiple times?

What if one player, on his final play, could change the world forever?

Another entry in the virtual reality sub-genre of science fiction. The twist here is that the players in The Game don’t remember their real-life existence and they live out entire virtual life spans learning skills and acquiring credits for upgrades on future game play. Some of the ideas are intriguing to think about but at the end I did not feel compelled to continue with the series – not immediately anyway. This novel takes itself very seriously and such an approach must then deliver with profound themes and the resulting advice on better living. But this book is a fun-loving gamer oriented story. I could love it if it had a bit more fun in the mix. Does the sequel offer more fun?

The fantastic Luke Daniels delivers just as I have come to expect. His efforts would have been much more appreciated if he had some elements of humor to work with. And that is the primary factor in my dissatisfaction with The Game. I regret that this sounds a bit harsh but after experiencing the Frontlines series narrated by Luke Daniels I got used to Daniel’s sarcasm. I missed that here.

Fun-Loving Gamer Novel — Minus the Fun

So much going on behind the scenes, it was impossible to stop listening sometimes.

Even moreso because the narrator was fantastic! Characters were sometimes accented and still sounded incredible, men sounded masculine (easy for a male narrator), and women sounded feminine (*not* easy for a male narrator). I could even tell the difference in characters ages! I knew it was an old man or woman talking or self narrating, or a teenager!

The air of mystery and romance and danger was always around, it kept me hooked. I was enjoying every moment of it, even the snippets of exposition between chapters, which came in the form of quotes from other aspects of the world in which the story takes place. These snippets were always enjoyable to listen to and think about in relation to the grand scheme of the story, and many times they were even motivational.

I have seen some reviews here on Audible that are severely negative towards this book, and I can't understand why. Of course, the book isn't backed by science and research, it's not written to be as realistic as possible, and it's not meant to be studied. It's just a downright fun book with some incredibly interesting thought experiments for most normal people in the world, and I love that.

Give it a read, you genuinely won't regret it.

So cool

I found this book by accident! Another author shared this book so I took a chance. First, the narration is wonderful! Sometimes the narration can make or break a book experience and I loved it! The story is great and kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to come next!!
No spoilers, so just know I absolutely recommend! Can't wait to start the next book!!

I loved it!

At first when I listen to this book I was really confused but then I started to understand and then at the end I got confused again but I was still pretty confused

It was a good book but confusing

I was in love with the premise, but as the story unfolded I was confused about the message. I also found some of the characters a bit too similar to distinguish.

Good premise eh execution

A decent story but not good enough to want to listen to the next book.

Only ok

The possibilities are endless. The possibilities of what, you wonder? Everything! Read the book and you will see what I mean.

What a mind-bender!

simple slice of life with very little story driving the plot

Luke Daniels really should practice his female voices

meh
