Escape from a video game is kind of a choose your own adventure book with a bit of mystery involved. My 10 yr old and I read this on an ebook copy and I think it would be more enjoyable in print format as trying to move from page to page just wasn't as much fun as flipping through by hand. The story is interesting but my son was not trilled, he said it was good but not great so with that we give it a 3 stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC to read for a an honest review.

Read and reviewed by ten-year-old Ayan.

'Escape from a Video Game' is a choose your own adventure book in which the reader gets to choose which path to follow to make the story progress. This is the second book I read in this series.

In this book, the characters are stuck in a spaceship and have to fight their way out. Reading this book gives a feeling of playing a video game.
I found the book very engaging, and I can read this book more than once as I can choose different paths each time.

I recommend this book for children 7 years and above.
I loved this book and would like to read more by this author.

A great choose your own adventure type book with lots of action packed choices. The concept is great for building interest in reading for kids who get bored easily or don’t want to read really long stories. It will keep them engaged with decisions to make and puzzles to solve to get ahead.

This book was so much fun. We read it aloud with the whole family and it was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It was a non-stop adventure and the kids absolutely loved feeling a part of the story and being able to choose. My son, who is a game lover, really loved the concept of feeling like he was gaming while reading. Excellent read.
