Complete Quests. Earn Renown. Win.

Meet Alexander Krup, your average high school graduate turned video game beta tester. Working for a strange company nobody has ever heard of, he earns his pay by the achievement.

After a string of bad luck, including his girlfriend dumping him, he wakes up one seemingly average day and is suddenly faced with blue boxes of text that float in the air. While coming to grips with the fact that he might by hallucinating, a representative of his mysterious employer communicates through the menu boxes to offer a fresh life in another world.

With nothing left to lose, Alexander takes the offer and is sent hurtling into a fantasy world both like and unlike any game he's played before.

Now, he must choose an alignment.

Will he seek Renown or Infamy? One way or another, Alex will leave a mark… or will it be a stain?

Don't miss this exciting new LitRPG Adventure from Kos Play, author of the System School Series. Join Alex as he rises from zero-to-hero in a new world filled with monsters, a detailed system, magic, power progression, and so much more!

Entertaining at times, irritating at others

I liked the hook. The MC wasnt bad at first, but did start to get whiney when things got hard. It made sense for his character, but that doesn't mean it wasnt annoying. As expected he got a little better as the story progressed, and then he got over confident and bad things happen. Fairly typical, and that's fine, but the problem I have with this book is that the characters intelligence is inconsistent. Forgetting things, or making dumb choices at convenient plot points, or keeping a cool head in most situations, then letting their temper control them in convenient plot moving places. It's a little shoddy story telling. It's not just the MC either.

I enjoyed it enough that, I'll probably get the next book, but I'm not eagerly anticipating it or anything.

half way through, then trash

half way through and ran into block. writer has no clue what a man would do if forced to wear cursed underwear that removes his ability to have sex. young 18 year Olds would rather burn the world Than meekly move on to next piece of loot. completely broke immersion.

okish but not original

The story started like many do. But the issue I had almost from the start was it was as if someone was narrating a video game. like every part of the game. To much game mechanics to the point of irritation.

But not trying to conquer current or build just making weird friends
