Ernest Cline has written something, alright.

If you are not into geeky things, just turn back now. I enjoyed this book for all the references, but the storyline itself was meh.

The writing was excellent as well, but, set in a dystopian not-so-distant future where everyone turns to OASIS, a simulation, to escape the reality of the world… Not a fan. Why don’t they try to fix it?

The main character, Wade, is on a quest (along with everyone else) to find the Easter egg that the creator of OASIS left in game after he died. The winner? Gets his fortune and the company that made the game.

Yeah, there is a prize for you! If you enjoyed Monty Python, read this book. If you are into all the geeky things, read this book. It is an interesting journey and one that I did enjoy.

I have put good because my opinion of it has changed over the years. I first discovered it as a Facebook game and played it on the computer and then a year or so back I discovered the app and downloaded it onto my ipad. The concept is quite easy you click on square to clear them to find paths through or to find items and complete quests or tasks. You travel through various countries and they do download special events for Christmas, Easter etc. I have deleted it several times and then reloaded it to play the special items but as the story progresses it uses more and more energy but you can create extra energy by digging out your camp, but those items get more and more expensive too. I would like to completely restart the game but you are not able to do this.

The sequel to both Insomniac's original "Spider-man" and to the 'interquel' "Spider-Man: Miles Morales", this tells an original tale that takes in both Kraven the Hunter and Venom as the two big-bads, following the tease of Peter Osborne in the end credits of the first Spider-man game.

While it may also have helped to have played Miles Morales in between (I did), I don't feel it is essential to enjoy the story of this (although I am sure you would miss some of the Easter Eggs, and maybe not have the same connection to the characters of Miles and his friends and family), with the plots of both briefly summarised in a "Previously on / who am I" segment at the very beginning of this.

And, yes, I'm sure there'll be a sequel: I'm actually surprised there hasn't (yet) been any add-on for this released!
