Many people think Ernest Cline writes about the future, but what he s really doing is writing about the complexities of the world we live in today. Whether you re black, white, woman, or man, this story is about you and what gaming has meant in your life. We already live in the OASIS, and the journey of life is trying to find as many of those Easter eggs along the way! Trevor Noah
