"Earth" Release #1

What would happen if our world turned into a computer game?

It might sound tempting at first, but there's one small detail you should know: in this game, people are nothing but non-playable characters, useful only for the service they provide to the real players. Experience, development, loot, levels—none of that is for us. Our role is merely to dance to the tune of our masters, who have come to our world to turn it into a character farm and a space for their own entertainment.

Doesn't sound quite as nice anymore, does it? But nobody ever gave us any choice in the matter: the update known as "Earth" has already been installed!

If anybody has a problem with that . . . well, that's their own personal problem. The system will devour everyone!

Interesting Take

This one surprised me and surpassed my expectations. I usually look for at least 1k reviews but the preview hooked me. The narrator is better than average and the story offers a unique take by making the MC an NPC instead of a player. He is relatable and quick to accept the new world he is cast into. With the constant threat of death by the world or the whims of the “Players” at any moment he chooses to make the most of it and fight back in his own way. Highly recommend this one. Well worth the credit. Now I’m off to book 2!
