This is a story set in a post-apocalyptic future. The Cold War progressed until it was too complicated for humans to manage, so the three major superpowers each developed a computer program to help run the war. When one of the programs becomes sentient it eliminates all of the human race except five persons, which it tortures for eternity.

Review of 'I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream' on 'Goodreads'

3 estrellas

If this was published after 1980, I would have given it one star. Being honest, I read I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream for AM's hate speech, and nothing else. The book itself is an amalgamation of obscene (and unrealistic) gore, with little-to-no character development and an unreliable narrator. All-in-all, I'd just recommend you play the game instead of reading the book. While media adapted from literature is oftentimes pathetic compared to the source material, the video game adaptation of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream far outperforms what is presented here. If you really want to read this, I'd recommend an audiobook, as listening to somebody read it gives some semblance of emotion.
