Name: Roleplaying in a Horror Game
Author: Tangerine Knight Unmatched

Synopsis

[Thriller] + [System] + [Horror] + [Comedy]

A horror game descends upon the world. Sadako, Kayako, the Slit-Mouthed Woman, Chu Renmei, the pencil spirit, Nie Xiaoqian, Mary Shaw, the Woman in Black... Horrors are coming, and one slip could make you a vengeful ghost's next meal.

Lin Zheng binds himself to the [Game Hint System].

It lets him see the future in the horror game, giving him a cheat-like advantage at every turn.

1. [Ding! Reward: one red outfit.]

Lin Zheng: “What am I supposed to do with this?”

[Next time you encounter a vengeful ghost, put on the red outfit, hold a knife to your neck, and tell it: “Come any closer and I'll kill myself. Then I'll become a vengeful ghost, and we'll see who's scarier.”]

Lin Zheng: “That's hardcore.”

2. What should you do if you run into Sadako?

[Reward: one horror videotape.]

Lin Zheng: “What, so there's twice as much Sadako?”

[Use Sadako to defeat Sadako.]

Lin Zheng: “That makes sense!”

3. What should you do if you run into the Slit-Mouthed Woman?

[Reward: one sewing kit.]

Lin Zheng: “?????”

[Sew her mouth shut.]

Lin Zheng: “But here's the question: if her mouth is sewn shut, can she still be called the Slit-Mouthed Woman?”

Horror World

I don't want a System that gives direct prompts and makes the protagonist invincible right away. That's no fun. Ideally, they should struggle to survive in a horror world like an ordinary person. They shouldn't become invincible in the first few dozen chapters, and preferably there shouldn't be a harem.
