<b>3.5 out of 5 stars 🌟An interactive <I>Damsel in distress</i> story</b>
<i>Escape Book</i> is a story based in <I>Minecraft</i> word preferably for everyone interested in the game but mostly those aged 8 to 14. It is a 'Choose your own adventure' kind of the book with a pretty complicated system that includes maps, inventory and combining inventory with in-book objects.
Runt, the main character, has a mission to accomplish:
Save his friend - Breeze - who allegedly was imprisoned in a dark temple by Runt's nemesis - Herobrine. Unfortunately, while doing that, Runt was also trapped in the temple with his companion, a talking cat named Eeebs, therefore now they must save not only save Breeze but also find a way out of that dark place.
I read that book along with my son for a few reasons:
• eARC I received isn't a good format for reading that kind of story, scrolling back and forth through pdf pages was both annoying and complicated
• At least two times we had no idea what to do next or whether we unblocked the next part of the book or not
• The reader needs to keep track of their inventory and looks at the map at all times and again - it's complicated with an ebook version
Overall, reading that was an enjoyable family exercise and a good way to spend time together. It's more of an interactive story than classic 'choose your own adventure' and I really appreciate the idea of adding map and inventory. I'd love to read on paper to have even more fun with it.
<I>Many thanks to publisher and NetGalley for the digital ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.</i>
