⚱️Safe Room Guide you will possibly be more endeared to than the mc, despite the sum of his appearances making up less than 5% of the book.

Equipping this book will yield the following: 

➕15 XP appreciation for gaming mechanics
➖37 damage to mature adult brain cells

Most of the reviewers who disliked the book have said some version of “Disclaimer: I’m not the target audience for this.” 

📚🎮But I was a Hunger Games reader who in my present adult years occasionally gets hooked on a specific video game. Arguably, this book sh/could be for me.

💥I was having so much fun for the first 30%, chuckling out loud, and then I started to experience a slow and steady increase of ick. At first I excused it, because it was applied to the in-game narration or culture-picking dysopia of it all. But we’re gonsta have the game voice for every book, yeah?

🛒I won’t judge you for smashing this series, I thought I was going to be reading every level at that 30% point. 

💀Do the subsequent books have less explosive ick, “corn” references, and “duck” jokes?
