This list contains stories on my reading lists where MC or someone else important in the story was switched at birth or the family replaced real child with a fake one later on. In most of these stories the biological family does not treat MC right. In cases where MC is replaced after birth the real child was usually either lost at young age or had a reason for replace the real child with a fake.... more>>

Descriptions may contain spoilers. They help me remember the contents of the novel.

I added a few novels that can't be found on NU in the comments. The BG ones can be found in a separate list.

My personal ratings:

5 - I really love this novel. Will read this again again.

4 - I really like this novel. Will read this again.

3 - this is a nice novel. I liked it. I might read this again.

2 - this novel was okay, but I wouldn't want to read it again. Usually I find these rather boring, or at least not interesting enough to check out again.

1 - I didn't like this novel. <<less

Shooting games, MMORPGs, and holographic games only. ... more>>

There are a few variations, but in general unlimited flow/survival games, variety and other game shows/competitions are not included within this list! 

Note: Not in any particular order. <<less

List of E-sports/Gaming danmei that I've read/been reading/yet to read. It's based on my own preference so the ones at the top have satisfying fluffy... more>> stories. I'm not a fan of angst/sad stories as I have a weak heart so these novels are full of fluff but there is one that's full of knives within the story. But all these are HE so I'm still happy. I hope you enjoy them too!
Also a note: I wanted to draw a clear line on e-sports and casual gaming. From my understanding, e-sport novels give important role on competitions and in-depth explanation on teams and gaming elements. The game is a very major part of the story. While casual gaming on the other hand, focuses more on romance and less on the gaming features in the novel. This is only for my list so that people who browse this list would be able to browse easier.  <<less
