Clever Rule-Based Horror Stories
Please don't recommend Mom's Note. I'm looking for high-quality rule-based horror stories.
The Protagonist Is a Terrifying Ghost in a World of Horror
The Protagonist Becomes a Ghost or an Evil Entity, and Isn't a Goody-Two-Shoes
The protagonist becomes a ghost or some other supernatural entity, isn't a bleeding heart, and doesn't care much for humans. No symbiotes, please. Thanks, everyone 🙏

Rule-based Horror Stories Where the Protagonist Is the Rule
The Male Lead Creates Urban Legends, He Doesn't Participate in Them
The protagonist creates something and then lets players participate. Since this is a behind-the-scenes story, there should be no female lead. No female lead, no holier-than-thou protagonist, no romantic tension, and no harem.
Looking for Rule-Based Horror Stories More Addictive Than Su Ming
Looking for books like "I Started Rebelling in the Rules Horror Game".
Looking for Stories Where the Protagonist Founds an Evil God Cult, Like the Mechanical Ascension Cult
Something like Founding the Three Great Sects from the Start, where the protagonist says he's founding a sect but is actually a bit of a bleeding heart. Nothing crazy or evil, please. Novels like Starting Out as a Priest in the World of Cthulhu or I've Equipped a Mysterious Template would be great.
Any Stories Like The Backrooms or Other Rule-Based Horror Tales?

I'd like a Primordial World story.
I Accidentally Deleted a Novel, and I Remember It Being Really Good
The protagonist was talking fantasy novels with a friend. He mentioned an ongoing novel with tens of thousands of chapters, but his friend said it was bad and not as good as The Three-Body Problem. The protagonist went home angrily, opened his phone, and saw that the novel with tens of thousands of chapters had updated. An old man appeared and said...

It's a very novel concept. Most other rule-based ghost stories I've read only focus on one tale per book. This book, however, presents different tales in a series of parallel narratives, leaving a lot of room for development. The plot will become increasingly exciting as the author's writing improves.
This is the first novel I've been searching for for over ten days that I've found that I can actually keep reading.
Aside from a few flaws, this book is pretty good overall. There are no cheat codes, the protagonist is cautious enough, and there aren't any mindless plot points. Wen Changqing's (the male lead) personality shift isn't particularly exciting, but it could be foreshadowing; it just feels abrupt and sudden.
Keep it up, author! I hope you don't stop writing. I've already read several that have been interrupted. It really is short.
It's well-written, but it only has the thrill of being scary and lacks the chilling quality that comes with careful reading.
This book doesn't have a female lead, right? ( • ̀ω•́ )✧
Well written, this book is destined to become a classic.
Overall, this book is very good. However, although it's a book about strange tales of rules, I don't think the sense of rules is very deep. Instead, it feels more like leveling up in a game. But undeniably, the book is very exciting, and the ending is unexpected yet logical. Finally, I wish the author all the best, continued success, and a brilliant future!
The writing is alright, but a score of 6. X is a bit low; it should probably be around 7.2 to 7.5. You can tell the author had a good story in mind and was trying to tell it well, but unfortunately, some parts weren't explained clearly. The author might have been aware of these points and thought they were foreshadowed earlier, but in reality, the transitions were either abrupt or some parts that…
There aren't many books that can truly capture people's interest these days, and the author writes very well (the above is just my personal opinion).
