This Game Gets People Killed

This is an urban fantasy novel that blends the exhaustion of everyday life with surreal suspense. The protagonist, Jiang Wenye, is thirty-one and a doctoral student at a top university. Surrounded by tedious data and failed models, he repeats a life whose end he can see from the start. In real life, he is the quiet one at group meetings and the nobody sitting in the corner at dinners. But in games, he is the revered "God Jiang," able to dismantle any mechanic and see through every rule.
