Description
"Ms. Peterson is starting a video game club where the students will be playing The Good War, a new game based on World War II. They are divided into two teams: Axis and Allies, and they will be simulating a war they know nothing about yet. Only one team will win. But what starts out as friendly competition takes an unexpected turn for the worse when one player takes the game too far"--Publisher marketing.
