Another great read so far! (人*´∀`) 。*゚+
Spoiler

The challenges from each set are all really immersive and thrilling. I didn't expect multiple CPs especially from their personalities that they can be so fluffy and pure! (´∩。• ᵕ •。∩`)

[collapse]

Another binge worthy novel; now I just gotta wait ಥ‿ಥ

Mystery? Here it is....

Romance? Here it is....

Bl? Of course, it is...

Survival? Hehe...

Overpowered Protagonist? Yes!

Hugging the big thighs? First come! First serve! Had gone here first!

Either way, currently riding towards the end without doing anything. Ah~ such a blissful game when you have big gods to ride on.

Was provoked by the review that gave two stars so I read it. Totally nonsense, MC is indeed calm and smart but not perfect, he has flaws and that flaws are covered by the ML who has flaws too, they are complementary to each other. It's also not an automatic love relationship like, boom love at first sight, nope. I know we have different tastes in novels but why make a review about a character when the character build is not even progressing yet? I mean, chapter 5? Honestly? I... more>> didn't read this novel for months since I thought it would be the same old plot but I stayed for the plot and mysteries. Love the Main CP and love the supporting characters. I love how they emphasize trust and sense of belongingness is a vital part as a team. Definitely one of my reread books. <<less

This is definitely a thriller and mystery novel with some slow romance!

Both characters are strong with their own sets of strengths and weaknesses; with the MC being intelligent and thinks outside-the-box while the ML's strengths lies in his physical skills, abilities, and his leadership!

There are no clear romance yet, but the pair had such sweet moments and tact understanding that you just want to ship them together!!
Spoiler

They even have more tact understanding than regular couples!

[collapse]

Every moment is wonderful and both the MC and the ML have equal amount of time to showcase their OPness! Their relationship is so balanced and probably the most balanced relationship I've ever read!

This absolutely became one of my favourite novel!!

If liked earth is online type of novel then you will also like this one.

the dynamics between the members and their cooperation as well as their character stand out in different settings. Sure the MC and ML is the main focus but their teammates were were not treated as shadows as they all have roles to play in.

the plot is engaging, a page-turner if I may say and as for the romance, its a slow burn but the author is pleasant enough to throw some fluffs here and there

this is really really good, although the romance is slow, there are some bits and pieces of fluff and it's really cute.

the MC is smart and cautious while the ML is the typical action person, they really have a good chemistry.

the side characters are also useful and have good mentality.

the plot is also very nice, you won't be bored and the mystery solving are very interesting.

all in all, 10/10, I just hope more chapters would be here soon.

I'm truly enjoying the case style and the mysteries so far, and the characters are interesting and well developed, so I only have one complaint:

... more>>
Spoiler

the romance is So Slow. After over 100 chapters they've not progressed to even realising their feelings or crush, and only one of the side characters has any idea (implied, not stated).

[collapse]

Besides that complaint, the mysteries are fun and varied, and there's lots to read here. Considering that there are bound to be significantly many more of them, though, the story might end up dragging eventually (and might explain why the relationship development is as it is).

As is, this story is definitely worth a read with a gentle, slow relationship development and a surprisingly intense and action filled plot with plenty of great characters. <<less

Main character is similar to a detective and solves different things in a game world/system.
Spoiler

The chapters are very wordy. The beginning can be pretty dry to be honest. There's not much action. I think it gets better later? Or maybe it's because I've read too many mystery/detective novels haha.

Currently reading this one. Because its still on first chapters so there's not much development, I havent see the ML too. Aside the BL tag, this one is quite good, and its fun to solve the case too. Tbh I already guess in the first case, its the husband but I dont know that he also killed the cousin, I dont know if our MC solved it perfectly is good or not. The real plot tho, very very scary.

Until this point I gave it 5 stars, its easy to read... more>> but also made you wonder about the puzzle, so far so good. Almost like Earth is online vibe.

Its amazing how can novel that still on going and only around 30 chapters already get low rating. Like, you dont even know whats the real plot and already judged it bad. Wow. <<less

I feel like a lot of negative reviews just didn't have the patience to finish this kind of novel, which is fair-everything is personal preference. However, it is one of the best novels I have ever read. The romance is very natural for the main cp, I know some people didn't like the side pairings but I found them quite sweet. The author does forget some details sometimes, which is pretty natural, and the characters would probably forget some things too. The author kept track of an incredible amount for... more>> how long this novel was. The intricacy was amazing, and the mysteries very well done. Heavily suggest if you're the type who can read long books to pick this one up! I cried when it was finished from the pure emotion-don't worry, it does have quite the HE. <<less

I really wanted to enjoy this book. It started off great, but then it just kept dragging on. I agree with other people who say that some team members don't get enough time in the story. Take, for instance, the dancer and sporty couple; their presence seems minimal, and I half-expected them die in the middle of the novel due to their limited involvement. It's disheartening that many characters are barely acknowledged, and it makes me wonder if the author is even aware of the concept of 'Chekhov's gun.'

Really interesting novel. The last couple of arcs can be a draggy for some readers but it's perfectly fine for those who are used to long webnovels. I'm also glad to find another novel like TEIO that focuses on plot and not messy stuff like protagonists being kidnapped, love triangles etc.

4.5/5

(Till chapter 269) I haven't finished reading this but I just had to write a review.

Do I recommend this novel? Yes. Very interesting story narrative with multiple game rooms which will keep you on your toes throughout. MC and ML relationship is slow burn but really adorable and lovely. The found family trope in this novel is to die for. It is literally one of my favourite tropes ever.

... more>> However there are two things I need to vent about hence writing a review in the middle of this novel.

One - the teammates in the novel isn't given much time to shine usually. To the point they are like sheep that just follows the main couple's orders always. Especially the chameleon and long jump couple (?) literally don't even have lines and we forget they exist most of the time.

Two and the most infuriating part of this novel. This novel's main character is Xiao Lou. Then why is the ML taking centre stage? Literally the MC does nothing but stay at home and worry about the ML in a genre that should be full of adrenaline. Even in novels where the MC is weak and ML is OP, the author usually writes from MC's point of view. At the part where I'm reading you can just presume the main character is the side character at this point. The ML isn't a bad guy persay but the way the author is giving ML the most lines in a novel where he isn't the main character irks me.

Edited:

Ok I've completed the novel. The ending was perfect and sweet. The last game was really well written and extremely exciting to read with a lot of plot twists and turnarounds. Overall, aside from a few plotholes and the points I've mentioned earlier, this novel is a hidden gem on novelupdates that I highly recommend. <<less

I loved jt.... but a few points to consider... in the earlier chapters you would feel that the author is repeatedly telling things which is by default things that we know and their take on psychology and other stuffs are basic or elementary... as an author they should research what they are writing about... this was during the early chapters.... but later on these things improved... also during the last 2 arcs I feel like some peoples IQ have regressed... I mean c'mon... u have been in the card world... more>> for a long time and you kmow u shouldn't trust anyone blindly... anyways.... the story as a whole is brilliant unique and really entertaining.... the extras are SWEEETTTTT!!!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE NOVEL.. special mention to Rainbow Mushroom Reads for this wonderful translation..... thanking the author and the translator for bringing us this piece of gem 💎🙏.. great stuff <<less

the mystery, the plot, and the characters were amazing.

Its just a pity that the author didn't keep better notes and forgot to use all the cards he made the characters draw.
i think a simple punishment of disabling - or destroying some of the cards they had or some abilities would tighten all the loose ends regarding the cards.

In regards to some things that were written and how the author forgot about them, I can let it be because it was a captivating novel.

An amazing 'unlimited flow' danmei, with a great ensemble of characters, exciting plot instances and 3 lovely CPs. Some card rooms are only puzzles and mazes while some others are complex plotlines with multiple ways of clearances. The card attributes are so complex and the plotlines so complicated that inevitably there would be some minor inconsistencies. I did not notice any, since I usually just let myself be carried away when reading novels. I don't analyze every chapter for plot holes like some readers seem to enjoy doing! IMO, the... more>> author generally managed to remain consistent and logical throughout the novel.

I love the pairing of strong police officer ML x smart forensic scientist/uni professor MC. Very interesting to read how their specific skills helped them challenge the card rooms. I like that the protags had such tacit understanding right from the start and were so good together even before they fell in love. Their confession scene is one of my favourite moments. The protags are not OP and can only rely on the specific skills of their team members for survival. They chose team members wisely, not only according to strength and skills but also compatibility of character and like-mindedness. I loved the 2 adorable side CPs within their team.

One annoying little thing is that the first 200 chapters are not proofread, with a lot of spelling mistakes. It gets better after they hired a proofreader. Another annoying little thing was author's habit of repeating some stuff over and over. I know this is normal format for lengthy web novels... but for someone who is reading the completed novel, a lot of things would be too repetitive. <<less

I like this novel! It was enjoyable to me. I binge-read this and although there were some chapters I got bored, it was acceptable.

Rating this 4 stars because there were many loose-ends that wasn't properly addressed. Also, the author seemed to forget some facts/plot she had written before resulting to plot holes!

I also didn't like how the author handled the main CP. Xiao Lou turned to a shy teenager who easily blushes after getting together with the ML. I get that he was new to the relationship but why did... more>> he get so flustered at the idea of sleeping with the ML in the same bed after returning to the real world, when they've been sleeping together in the Carld World! Where's the calm MC I liked in the beginning?!

Thankfully, it wasn't focused on the romance or I would've drop it.

Overall, it's a nice read.

Edit: Ugh, I accidentally cl**ked 3 stars. <<less

I have already finished reading the novel more than three times (it quite an enjoyable read and I won't lie I did feel bored while reading but I got through all chapter and preserved until the end and I quite like it). But I would rate it in the the following ways:

Quality of writing: 10

Quality of translation: 10

... more>> Characters: 9.5

Arcs: 8.5

Enjoybility : 10 (I enjoyed it a lot)

Horror: 6 (I felt that there was not much horror element in it more like an escape mystery)

Mystery: 10

Atmosphere: 6 (I kinda bias since I came to read horror bl, the novel according to me is inclined more towards um. Mystery so I gave it a lower rating without my bias it 10 if you came for a good mystery and to rack ur brain then).

Rereading Chances: 10 (Lol I would read this novel once again and again and it still enjoyable)

I gave the scoring out of 10.

Thank you to the translators for bringing this awesome book for us to read and tothe author who wrote the book. <<less

Pretty decent! I managed to follow it through update by update for a reallllyyy long time, so it at least is good enough to keep me coming back.

Ngl it definitely dragged on for too long, and the big-brained-ness that attracted me from the first few arcs doesn't really carry over later in the story. Theres a lot of plotholes, things that happen just for convenience, and unreasonable developments, but its honestly still a pretty fun read if you just turn off your brain. I also really enjoyed the extras, just... more>> seeing everyone live in a safe world and also seeing the side pairings get together. Tbh during the main story itself there isn't much romance. Like theres enough for this novel to count as danmei but if you wanted one filled with romantic developments this really isn't it. I feel like the extras were used to make up for all of the lack of romance in the main story lmfao. The majority of the plot is centered around clearing the card rooms, so if you aren't into that then there really isn't much point to keep reading. Anyways, pretty good I guess. But way too long lmao. A solid 4. <<less

Loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved the MC, ML, and the whole team!!! Their bonds are so precious and they try to help the team in their own way. One of the best teams I read in other similar survival novels.

It is a slow romance but the chemistry between the MC and ML is already strong from the beginning. They understand each other so well. Plus the other side couples are so sweet too. I loved all the couples!!!!

As for the rooms, all of them are interesting even though the Diamond and Club rooms... more>> make me confused sometimes as my brain is not good lolllll. But it really entertaining and I learned stuff haha

Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Read for the plot and all the couples! It is so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <<less
