Read this awhile back forgot to post the review~
Our MC is a survival enthusiasts and joins a holographic survival game where the players are put into extreme conditions and they have to survive for 15-20 of days. They also have to maintain their Satiety (Must eat/drink), Hygiene/Cleanliness (must use soap/cleaning products) and Energy/Stamina (HP?). Or else they would get a negative status and their HP will be lowered until they're kicked out of the game.
- Players gets sent into a town where goods increase in prices every day for the next 20 days. Must avoid starvation, and also robbery/crimes from NPCs and other players.
- Players get sent into an island. Island experiences fog (can't order ships to get supplies) and later, storms and flood.
- Players gets sent into a cruise ship stuck at sea. The players in MC & ML's server made trouble and poisoned the drinking water. Also has to defend against pirates and sharks.
- Players get sent to a deserted island. Must survive in the wild. MC's survivalist knowledge comes into play.

Player gets sent into a gambling villa. Losers will be sent into the Arena to fight against beasts. #spoiler. Later, the players in the arena rebelled and attacked the gambler players.
- Players gets sent into town with a new virus and gets exposed to the source. MC & ML takes control of the situation and quarantines all players and 'hunt down' the escaped virus carriers.
- Zombie apocalypse. Players made trouble with conspiracies again. MC & ML observe then moves out of the shelter when the situation becomes out-of-control.
- Players gets sent to radioactive Town. There's no way to prevent it, can only reduce the effect or keep consuming supplies MC & ML leave early.
- Competition mode. Players get sent into a deserted island with limited supplies. Game ends when only 50% of players survive so there's infighting to eliminate other players.
- Last stage. Players gets thrown in an island. Must survive for how long it takes. Players who stayed the longest wins first place. MC & ML team up again on this one, lasted for 26 days and became first place.
- Winners MC & ML, along with other 'survivors' became game testers of the survival game. Players get sent into town experiencing economic crisis, unemployment, increasing debt interests etc.
- Players gets divided into black team and white team. Players fighting against each other.
- Another competitive mode. When player dwindles down to 20. Game would automatically end.
This is really really interesting for me cos of the survival games, but its not so dramatic cos it's really just a game, not life-and-death like in other unlimited flow novels. Our MC's strategy is actually to just mind her own business and survive in her own way. Her plan is mostly to hoard supplies and then spend the days quietly holed up. She meets ML early, he's quite a high profile players. ML's strategy is to hoard supplies and also to get rich in the early stage and solve the problems in the later stage with money (if possible). His way of playing is different from MC, more fun and cunning and interacts with other players instead of MC's solo play XD. Laters, the two of them team up and with MC's survivalist knowledge and ML's savvy ways, they're practically unbeatable. XD Winning first place, meeting in real life and working for the game company. HE.

Don't expect too much romance, but MC & ML also has their moments, mostly ML complaining that MC only contacts him about the game (lol) or being happy that MC is depending more on him ^^ The survival games itself are interesting plus the number of ways it can be solved, although MC's strategy is less exciting but I like how...steady it is. ML is in charge of the exciting part XD

Sherds
Linus falls into another world, arriving on an archipelago. This is a story about exploration, and archaeology is a major theme! Studying history and pre-history is a favorite of mine, so this is a project using my research to build a world. One of the magic systems has rpg inspired elements, but this isn't a litrpg at its core. I'm an art student and haven't written much, but I like telling stories. This is largely just for fun, my own spin on the RR other world formula. (Placeholder cover is from the Palazzo Massimo in Rome)

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
