Shen Dongqing was a powerful, thousand-year-old ferocious ghost. He had just possessed a body and barely managed to relax for two days when he was pulled into a world where hundreds of ghosts were running amok.

On the first day of being pulled into the Infinite Nightmare Game:

Other players were trembling, crying and wailing about wanting to go home.

Shen Dongqing was eating, sleeping, and playing Fight the Landlord (card game).

The second day:

Other players were covering their heads and scurrying away like frightened rats as they were being chased by ghosts, and they were crying out loud for help.

Shen Dongqing was eating, sleeping and playing Fight the Landlord.

The third day.

Shen Dongqing……

The ghosts finally set their sights on this lazy player. The other players were finding joy in his misfortune, but in the end, no one had expected that the slim and pale Shen Dongqing would throw down his phone and directly dispatch the ghosts with his bare hands.

Other ghosts: Can’t afford to mess with him, move, move.

If you liked I Wasn't Born Lucky, then there is a high chance you may also like this novel.

Similar to I Wasn't Born Lucky, the novel had a MC who is calm, unconventional/"naive"/doesn't follow the script and is OP. Furthermore, the two novels share the same tone of speechless ghosts.

The only clear differences are the kind of strengths the MCs has and the different components of the world-building. For example, in this novel, the MC had more physical strength while the MC in I Wasn't Born Lucky had a more... more>> intelligence-based strength.

I can't wait to read more! <<less

As the others said, the novel is completely bland. Even the MC and ML are plain so side characters, they didn't even get to have a name. Yes, MC being super OP and having fun in horror worlds is quite refreshing at first but then it became a routine. He only eats, sleep and have fun in every arc. It could be fun in one arc or two but every single arc... And also the fact that ML literally knew how to clear the game yet extended their stay just... more>> because MC thinks the food in that world is delicious.... Like, if I were a character in there, I'd really hate to be their teammates because they are never serious. Even if my teammates aren't OP, as long as they are reliable and can trust my back, it's doable. But with the 2 of them,... well, let's just say I HATE them. Because MC even lectures every ghost to become fiercer and scare more yet he never considered he and ML are the only one who could dominate them. Sure he doesn't kill people discriminatly, but his actions indirectly pitted every other players.
Spoiler

One time in Casino arc, both MC and ML literally betted on the game with the other player (Fang Qi?) 's life just because they think it's fun and wanted to try doing something. They didn't even ask for consent or permission. He literally had to trust them with his own life and the only thing he came out alive was just because of the plot, literally

[collapse]

MC keeps saying he wanted to be a human yet the only thing he does is eat, sleep and play games on phone. If the novel is more about romance with horror infinite flow as a side genre, I'd be okay too. But the romance, it also fails. The only thing attracting MC to ML is that he is delicious and kissing him is a way for him to eat his yin energy. There is no fluff. None at all. He was just protective of his reserve food (the author literally write that in the novel). And for a thousand year old ghost, he was always the one being protected by the MC. Failed in every angle. I had high hopes because it was picked up by Chrysanthemum Garden but it is such a letdown. <<less

OP MC, OP ML, & a tale spun entirely for them. If you like plots where the universe is catering to the main characters, this may tickle your fancy. I personally enjoy having MC "one-punch man" his way through the instances. But the repetitiveness may cause one to be utterly bored... especially when there's 139 chapters full of it. Main CP was cute. I've read a lot of ghost x human stories where shou is a human, but this is the opposite which I found refreshing. There are a few... more>> novels with similar dynamics, but I'm glad to find another one. The romance was sweet though buildup could've been better. I do love my doting gongs & ML is definitely that type. Plot was subpar. The instances were average and weren't exactly the most engaging. It's just shallow spooks & fun.

Many thanks to the TL, you're amazing! RIP to extras : ( <<less

I thought it would be nice to read this after a particularly heavy piece, but it ended up being the opposite LMAO This novel is a bit too whimsical for my current mood. So I decided to drop it while it was early and come back another time. It's pretty interesting though. It doesn't take itself too seriously. And it seems to be going the direction of the MC and ML pretty much taking everyone through the instances with no worries.

Can't remember at what chapter I dropped this, but dropped it earlier than expected. I actually just read through the 1st arc before deciding to drop it.

it just isn't what I'd expect from an unlimited flow novel

Maybe it's just me but I think I knew what I was getting into after reading the summary. But from a ferocious ghost of MC's age if expect more than what I got.

... more>> Although I believe in Chrysanthemum Garden's choice this one just didn't suit my taste

I'm I going to pick it up again? No thanks, I cherish myself. My review might be biased in accordance to my taste you can go ahead and read it. I hope this is what you look for, even though it's wasn't what I was looking for.

3/5

Another good and funny novel. I like the thousand yr old ghost dense protagonist. However, some chapters are bland, the MC is OP and the ML is OP, making it less interesting.

Dunno if I'm gonna drop

Was hooked right away by the cute and clueless OP ghost MC. As a millenial ghost who just gained a human body, he has a child-like temperament and loves playing on his phone and eating human food. For ML, it was probably love at first sight but MC only sees him as delicious food lol... of course ML has his ways of getting what he wants, or he would not be ML. Comedy-Horror unlimited flow danmei, with a big emphasis on comedy as we follow OP MC hilariouly hacking his... more>> way through the levels of the game, scolding and killing ghosts, destroying plots and horror tropes, messing with the system and also finding true love... Be sure to read the funny extras, translated by Midnight Brambles, about MC and how he adapts to real life, and also an interesting chapter about who he was in the past, before he turned into a ghost. <<less

This is probably the most nonsensical sentence I can say. But the extras are more satisfying than the main story 😭😭😭

I'm sorry, but I really felt that way while reading this story... 😭😭

To be honest, this story was built with a unique premise, but too many elements were included that sometimes I felt tired (?) to finish the main story. One of the stories I finished quite late. But I still finished this story so it was worth it 🥺

Honestly ⭐️ 4 for the main story, and 5 🌟 for... more>> the extra stories 😿😿

Our MC is really OP, very OP! But that's normal 🥺 because his background requires him to be like that... And I love both our MC and ML. They are inseparable 🥹 <<less

It's bland, there's no emotion. When you read a story, you expect to be able to grasp the emotion or the story and makes you become "involve" with it. But this one, it was reading words on paper, they were just words without you becoming emotionally invested in it. I put down this story for weeks and when I read it again, it was still the same thing. It was just boring. Even the comedy wasn't doing its job.

And the ml, he was introduced too early, first arc. He is... more>> involved in everything since the beginning. And they already kissed!!! Although it was technically eating but it didn't make my heart flutter, you know the giddy feeling you have when the MCs gets together and finally kiss. Again just words on paper. Nope, I hate that. I don't know how the couple will develop later on, but seeing how I can't be pulled in the story, it's not worth it <<less

Cute, if repetitive; highish rating comes from that I didn't get bored, and MC is a rare example of a protagonist with one brain cell that I can accept. 4 stars.

I liked this enough that I would read it again.

This has a bit of a Scooby doo type feel to me.

No smut but the main couple is cute. You have a bear child MC that just wants to eat, nap and play. His solution to everything is to punch it. Then you have the ML who is only sweet to the MC. In the middle of a dangerous battle, he will make sure that MC has a snack.

Because they are both OP, there isn't much tension, however because they are... more>> hands off unless bored, the people around them range from cannon fodder to expert thigh holders so there is some variety with the survival of the others. There is also the ghost enemies that are at times so funny.

Yes, it does get a bit repetitive, but the different scenarios are interesting and the world building is varied.

It's a solid soft horror adventure story. If you are more of a jump scare mystery type, this would work. If you are a serious horror fan or like more dark styles, this probably isnt for you.

It's not amazing, but it's a good read. It's got a decent pace and there aren't unnecessary descriptions that drag, etc. <<less

While it's not a bad read, I think that I feel pretty neutral about this series compared to other ones I've read as a new-ish reader. As some others have mentioned in their reviews, the stakes are non-existent as the couple is super OP. Usually that's not a deal breaker for me! There are lots of series that can pull off low-stakes, high fluff scenarios - but this was not one of them LOL. Unfortunately, this novel is done in a way that struggles to capture the reader's attention especially... more>> as we go through tons of arcs without a sense of anticipation or thrill. I can't remember much that stood out to me; The fluff is nice, though it doesn't stand out or really shine either. Towards the "end" (CG didn't translate the extra chapters so I am talking about CH 110-139 here) all the loose ends were tied up in a rushed manner, with our curiosity about the MC and ML's OG setting suddenly hand-fed to us by the author and thus also contributing to the lack of thrill or intrigue I felt throughout the chapters. I am usually a fast reader, however, this one took me quite a while to finish as I kept dropping and then picking back up out of boredom when I didn't feel like binging a new series. So I personally would recommend that people read other infinite flow options out there first! This is a novel that you'd read when there's nothing else you feel like reading or you do not want to get super duper invested. <<less

The selling point of this novel is how strong both the MC and the ML are, in fact, the MC is even stronger than the ML, and the way they easily breeze past the horror instances they are in. It's an incredibly feel-good read, and even the romance is pretty fast burn. Don't read this novel expecting a brilliant twist at the end!

Nothing too new but I like the way that most of the major plot points get tied up nicely by the end.

Basically MC and ML playing whack and mole with Ghosts and monsters in a game. I got bored half way through. The stories are very short. Repetitive MC and ML crushing everything.

I thought MC was trying to find a job as a human and he was going to be a money grub. But he's actual a marshmallow food grub that's cute.

But I got bored, even MC background story lore couldn't keep me going.

They are too OP, there's no suspend at all. It's not fun reading protagonist just blasting everything in the instances. Even I could feel the NPC & BOSS frustation towards them.

MC having lack of common sense & ML just keep taking advantage of him (wonder if it count as dub-con).

Translations are great, well.. Just try to read it if you like that kind of Protagonist.

Great short read! This doesn't bring anything new to the QT genre but it lives up to the literal meaning and the characters have fun in it.
MC is OP as he should be and so is ML (they suck at least in one thing as shown in the arc after the train). I am still confused about the character that left with MC but they do make a great comedic duo. In the end, the true OP character is Fang Qi, who got carried all the way to the... more>> end and is a rich 2nd gen in real life. Thigh huggers ftw! <<less

It is really thrilling. It's sort of similar to the novel 'A crowd of evil spirits line up to confess to me'.

It's not scary at all. It's more of a comedy/ supernatural story but it's a good read. The romance between the MC and ML is sweet and well paced. Both MC and ML are OP but it's done well and doesn't get annoying, it helps that there a valid reason for why they are so strong.

I like horror comedies and this story is right on the checklist hence the five star.

The leads are OP hence the instances are just a walk in the park for them, this could be a turn off for some who are used to seeing MC/ML having a hard time. There are no emotional or psychological struggles on the lead, there is no heart pounding life and death struggle so the reading experience is lessened. (So if you are here thinking it is on the same genre as the nightmare game,... more>> earth is online, etc. Think again)

This is my personal summary of this one:

other nightmare games/instance related games/ card games/ etc. : Pitting the players and watching them have a hard time and struggle

this nightmare game:
Spoiler

being pitted by the leads, instances being put into maintenance by the leads.

Ghosts: Asking them to never come back ???

Game: Die ?, die ?, just die ??. Okay please just leave ????

there you have it <<less
