    Have you ever tried to fit in? Both “Good Enough” and “Game Over” are about teenagers trying to fit in at school. “Good Enough” and “Game Over” have a multitude of similarities and differences, such as their themes and the types of characters used. One similarity between “Good Enough” and “Game Over” is their themes. In “Game Over”, Ryan joins a tennis class, when everyone starts speaking Russian he does not tell anyone he can not understand them, afraid he will not fit in.
