Book 1
Project: Divergent Videogame
Have you ever read Divergent? Did you wonder what it would
be like to live in a society like that? Well now you can experience it, with
the Divergent videogame! The
videogame also comes with a copy of the second book in the series, Insurgent! In the game, you pick
between the characters of Four or Tris. You go through their lives from
aptitude test, initiation and fighting the Erudite.
Since there are different
characters to choose from, I’ll start by telling you what you will do as Tris. As
Tris, you will start by going through her aptitude test and if you do it right,
the words from your aptitude tester saying the words, just as in the book, “You
are divergent” will lead you to the next thing. The faction choosing is
automatic for both Four and Tris to pick Dauntless also like the book. After the aptitude testing, the faction ceremony
video will play, then you will move onto initiation; initiation being how you
will become Dauntless and not factionless. As Tris said, “Just like that you
could be factionless,” so in the game passing initiation will be hard. You will
have to jump off trains and building, fight other initiates, go through fear
landscapes, learn to shoot, and learn to throw knives and more. But as you know
if you read the book, initiation doesn’t get to finish because of the Erudite’s
mind controlling simulation to kill Abnegation. Still as the character of Tris,
you will go through her journey of losing friends and family while fighting the
Erudite. The other character you can
choose is Four. His and Tris’s characters don’t go through exactly the same
thing because he is 18 while she is 16, so he is already past his initiation.
As Four, you will be leading the initiation. Telling people what to do and
helping people with their initiation tasks, and of course you will have to
throw knives at Tris because she had to say, “I’ll take his place” when four
had to throw the knives at Al. Though she wants to be dauntless, she can’t help
but be abnegation too. We all know that Four goes through his own fear
landscape many times, so of course you will have to go through his fear
landscape and obviously not fail. Then, like Tris, you will have to go through
the journey of fighting the Erudite, but it will be different than Tris’s
because different things happened to them in the book. An example of something
that will be different is for Four you will have to help him fight his
simulation serum and for Tris you will have to fight Four and help him get out
of the simulation serum. I would tell more about the differences but I don’t want
to give away too much! But one more thing I will tell you is that you will also
be able to play out Tris’s and Four’s romance.
This videogame about Divergent will allow the fans to
experience the Divergent world. They
get to experience the things they wouldn’t be able to experience in real life,
such as simulation serums, fear landscapes, living in factions and more! How
else would they be able to experience the Divergent
world if it’s not even humanly possible? This way they will be able too! The bonus
of the game is that you will get a copy of the second book of the series. This way
the readers will be able to find out what happens next and see how things unfold
(if they haven’t read it already.) They will be able to learn more about the
characters and meet new ones. The videogame will also be way for the readers to
compare the Divergent book to the Divergent videogame. They will also be
able to see similarities and differences! There are also the people haven’t read
the book, but buy the game. They might not even know that the game came from a
book, so this could introduce them to the series.
This game will be sold in stores
such as GameStop, Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and even online at Amazon! If you
don’t want to make a trip to the store all you need to do is go online and
order it from Amazon! The game can be played on all Xboxes, including Xbox One.
It can also be played on the PS3 and PS4. So if I were you, I would go out and
buy the Divergent videogame today!
