A book called Armada. Truth or fiction 🤔

Is the Super Earth Armed Forces real? Is there a government conspiracy to be found?

A wonderful book to read for me is Armada. I don’t want to spoil much of the book but it follows a highschool student who loves to play a video game called Armada. In the book there are two different games and Armada focuses on flying drones to fight enemy alien spacecraft. The other game focuses on ground combat with various mech suits and such fighting the same alien forces.

Could this game be mirroring this book? Does life imitate art or does art imitate life? Maybe my tinfoil hat is on too hard. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking to live out a science fiction adventure.
