Book excerpt: A dying boy on a dying planet plays a dangerous, sophisticated, and addictive game that could save his life—if it doesn’t kill him first. A complex, gorgeous, literary thriller for fans for Ernest Cline, Brandon Sanderson, Orson Scott Card, and M.T. Anderson. In a futuristic version of Earth, society is mostly controlled by a company that produces an addictive virtual reality game called Chimera. Everyone plays Chimera. Defeating the levels is how you earn enough points for clothes, food, even medical enhancements. Miguel Anderson is good at it. In fact, he’s better than anyone he knows. He spends all of his free time playing, hoping to reach Level 25. At Level 25 you can pick any prize you want—and Miguel needs a new biometric heart. When the game runners announce a global competition to launch a new version with untold prizes, Miguel enters and becomes a team leader. That’s new for him—playing on a team. And complicated, as the game becomes a delicate power play between wholly unexpected players. This is the first of two books and features gorgeous writing, compelling action, and a flawed and memorable hero.

Book excerpt: "Only time will tell what destiny you will make for yourself." These are the words players hear before they first set foot into OverWorld, the most popular MMORPG of all time. With over 15 million worldwide monthly subscribers, it's hard not to know someone who plays, and it's easy to feel excluded if you don't. That feeling, along with a free 10 day trial of the game, prompted a new player to jump into the online world. Using an avatar named Tobin, he learns firsthand what it's like to be a part of the virtual community that makes up OverWorld. However, he soon realizes that there is much more to OverWorld than the casual game play he expected, and that the very structure of the game may soon depend on the destiny that he makes for himself.

Download or read book Spiritfarmer the Other Secrets written by Hugh Mann and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out of fear, convention has ingrained, or perhaps pioneered, a standard where by most interesting facts are presented as fiction. As I had grown tired of fear, and tired of pretending, ..and perhaps because I am somewhat of a bully, ...I began to present interesting facts, ...as interesting facts. And that, fellow players, ...apparently is Friction. Spiritfarming, as 'self-help', represents a basic opposite to traditional self help, in that you do NOT struggle, strive, self discipline, improve, sacrifice, fix the world, care about the world, socialize, or change. You simply accept, and DO, ...'YOU'.

Download or read book Spawn Point Zero written by Nancy Osa and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After repeated boundary attacks by Dr. Dirt and Lady Craven, the United Biomes of the Overworld alliance hangs by a thread and must be rebuilt. Captain Rob, Corporal Frida, and the members of Battalion Zero have made it their lives’ work to do it—but they’ll have to bring the fight home. With the riches gained from their last encounter with the griefer army, they set out to build and defend a UBO capital. As every player knows, though, life in Survival mode isn’t all sunflowers and roses. Bat Zero has bought some time for the Overworld by throwing Lady Craven into Creative Mode. Free from the need to battle for every biome border, the indie cavalry turns its efforts toward guarding one stronghold. They must form a standing army, create federal buildings, and gain the support of other villages. Meanwhile, hostile mobs threaten, and the Griefer Imperial Army promises a comeback—with a vengeance. For security, Captain Rob asks his troops to make the ultimate sacrifice: changing their spawn points to the capital city. Will they? Survivalists Frida and Turner have always kept their spawn points secret. Strategist Jools doesn’t want to die—ever again. Adventurer Stormie has changed her spawn point so many times that she can’t remember how she began playing the game. Even the intrepid captain doesn’t want to risk rebirth far from the ocean that brought him into this world . . . or how will he ever get back home? If the troopers won’t agree to transplant, they’ll never be able to respawn at their battle stations with any certainty. Letting go of their origins might be the only way they can continue their quest in this hard-hitting third episode of the Defenders of the Overworld series.

Download or read book Dungeons Dragons and Digital Denizens written by Gerald A. Voorhees and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dungeons, Dragons, and Digital Denizens is a collection of scholarly essays that seeks to represent the far-reaching scope and implications of digital role-playing games as both cultural and academic artifacts. As a genre, digital role playing games have undergone constant and radical revision, pushing not only multiple boundaries of game development, but also the playing strategies and experiences of players. Divided into three distinct sections, this premiere volume captures the distinctiveness of different game types, the forms of play they engender and their social and cultural implications. Contributors examine a range of games, from classics like Final Fantasy to blockbusters like World of Warcraft to obscure genre bending titles like Lux Pain. Working from a broad range of disciplines such as ecocritism, rhetoric, performance, gender, and communication, these essays yield insights that enrich the field of game studies and further illuminate the cultural, psychological and philosophical implications of a society that increasingly produces, plays and discourses about role playing games.
