In The God Game, did you enjoy ...

... the high-stakes, goal-driven narrative centered around a deadly AI game?

Daemon by Daniel Suarez

If you were hooked by the relentless drive of Charlie and his friends as they try to survive and outsmart the God Game, Daemon will have you on the edge of your seat. When a legendary game designer dies, his creation—an autonomous AI—launches a real-world game of survival and power, forcing a group of unlikely players to band together in a fight where the rules keep changing. Like in The God Game, every move matters, and the stakes are life and death.

... the complex dynamics of a large group navigating a dangerous, technology-driven environment?

The Circle by Dave Eggers

Did you enjoy the way multiple teens in The God Game wrestled with the consequences of their choices as the AI toyed with their lives? In The Circle, you'll follow Mae Holland and a wide cast of employees at a powerful tech company as they get caught up in a web of secrets, peer pressure, and surveillance. The ensemble cast dynamic and shifting allegiances will feel familiar and just as tense.

... characters confronting moral gray areas as they face impossible choices?

They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera

If you found the ethically questionable decisions made by Charlie and his friends compelling, They Both Die at the End offers a similarly gripping journey. As Mateo and Rufus receive a call from Death-Cast predicting their last day alive, they grapple with how to spend their final hours—and what lines they’re willing to cross. The story’s emotional weight and moral ambiguity will resonate deeply with fans of The God Game.

... fast-paced, twist-filled narratives that keep you guessing?

Recursion by Blake Crouch

If you couldn't turn the pages fast enough as The God Game careened through betrayals and reveals, Recursion will blow your mind. As a neuroscientist and a detective uncover a technology that alters memory and reality itself, the story whips through time and perspective with jaw-dropping twists. Every chapter ends with a new question or revelation, making it nearly impossible to put down.

... unexpected, reality-bending twists that escalate the stakes?

An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hank Green

If it was the unpredictable, surreal escalation of the God Game that drew you in, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing offers that same electric sense of discovery and danger. When April May finds a mysterious sculpture, she and her friends become the center of a global phenomenon that grows stranger and more perilous with each new development. The plot is packed with surprises that will keep you guessing to the very end.
