Invitation to the Game

The world feels so vividly imagined—did the author draw from specific real-world issues or create this entirely from imagination? I'm curious about the creative process behind it.

Their decisions seemed to oscillate between self-preservation and moral standpoints. How did others interpret their moral dilemmas?

The characters' struggles with fitting in versus standing out really resonated with me. I wonder what messages the author intended about individuality in oppressive societies.
