Played later with a 6 year old (he was sober) and died in several other horrible ways.
TL;DR: Fun for all ages, would die again!

If you have fond memories of the Choose Your Own Adventure books it's worth picking up for the $7.50 price I bought it at. If you're only looking at it through the lense of other games which have more going on…I don't think it's worth $13.50.
It's basically one of those books with some icing of post thought mechanics thrown on.

Amazon reviews are sketchy at best. I've had sellers offer me gift cards and $ to leave positive reviews .

It's neat for nostalgia, but it's a one or two plays and done game, it's not one you'll bust out often (especially with *any* non-tabletop player friends)

6.3 (out of 10) from BGG reviews (not Amazon shills).
Good price, mediocre game sounds like.
If you are a big CYOA fan and love games, give it a whirl. Otherwise I'd pass.

Just be warned that this is geared more towards casual fun than serious gameplay. There's not much skill or strategy involved, basically a choose your own adventure story on cards.
The game takes a few hours if you're properly exploring.
It's also split up into four sections so there are easy stopping points if you want to pause. If you're a more serious gamer trying to "win" as quickly as possible... Probably don't bother. It's definitely about the journey, not the destination.
There is also absolutely no replay value aside from exploring some areas you might have missed, and only one ending.
