So many novels tagged as 'fourth disaster' are actually infrastructure-building stories where the players are the author's protagonist's slaves. One line about how 'realistic and lifelike' it is, and the players become completely devoted. They're playing a game, so why are they still hauling bricks and doing manual labor to build houses and roads for someone else in the game?

Looking for Good Wasteland Novels, Recent Ones Have All Been Boring
The wasteland novels people recommend are all boring. The golden fingers are way too powerful, or else the stories are about being reborn or transmigrating. Not for me. I want something about people scavenging out in the wasteland, not stories where they can't even make the main plot clear.
Rated 9.4 or Higher, No CP. I'll Read Anything
I read all kinds of books, so recommend whatever. Just don't recommend books with terrible ratings in the eights. I only ask that there be a CP. Other than those two things, I'll read anything: schemes for power, transmigration, fantasy, horror, modern, historical, comedy, whatever oddball stuff you've got.
A Truly Feel-Good Female-Focused Novel, No Frustrating Moments at All, No Identity Mysteries
I just want a pure wish-fulfillment story with absolutely no frustrating moments. The female lead shouldn't have too many mysteries surrounding her identity, and there shouldn't be some big boss stronger than her. Ideally, she should be invincible. No romance, please. If there's a couple, it tends to become a case of the male lead being even stronger than the female lead. Male-oriented stories without romance are fine too.

It's visually appealing, but there are too few recognizable female characters. The spotlight is mostly on the male characters, who are portrayed with greater depth and complexity. In contrast, the number of female characters is pitifully small.
This is the first time I've seen a post-apocalyptic story told from the female protagonist's perspective, and it's wonderfully written! Its only flaw is that it's still too short!!! I'm begging for more chapters! 🥺
A breath of fresh air in the post-apocalyptic genre. Most other post-apocalyptic novels, except for a few, are all the same and not very engaging. This one has its own unique ideas, is very captivating, and quite enjoyable. Keep up the good work, author, it has the potential to become a hit. The writing style is there, and the theme and content are also very novel. It all comes down to accumulation.
4 Stars. Although the female lead sometimes seems a bit pretentious, the plot design is quite good. Overall, it's about a female lead escaping the apocalypse and being bound to a system, packaged as a game's infrastructure to summon players to explore this world.
It's very good. I've read several novels about the Fourth Calamity, and this one is top-notch (at least it's the one that suits my taste the best so far). First, the scenes from the protagonist's perspective and the player's perspective are given a relatively appropriate amount of screen time, the pace is fast, and it doesn't get boring.
The background and setting are interesting, the main characters are well-developed, and the fourth catastrophe is described in a fun way without any disgusting or uncomfortable plots or characters. There are very few female characters, especially in the fourth catastrophe; almost all the characters with screen time are male. The few named "female supporting characters" in the later stages are even artificial intelligence. I skipped around while watching.
The theme is the same! But this author's approach is quite different from others! There's no exaggerated map expansion or combat power! The author really immerses the reader in the role of a real player! It's really well-written! Everything develops so naturally! I love it! Please update more often!
It's great! Some of the players are really outrageous. I couldn't stop laughing, it was so funny! Some parts were also incredibly exciting. It's great, great, great!!! It's just too short!!! Author, hurry up and update, it's not enough! I'm starving!!! 😢😢
This is really interesting! It's a large-scale simulation game. Whether it's raising the female protagonist Luo Zhi or building the fortress, it's quite fun. The characters that have appeared so far are pretty good: the melee and ranged weapon user Hei Yun, the botanist Liu… (I forgot the name), and the players Xie En's team and Chu… team.
I've read about two-thirds of it, up to the part where he fights Yun Qin. The writing is decent, the world-building is interesting, and the player-driven storylines are fast-paced. Overall, it's a good reading experience. I gave up halfway through because of personal preference; as a female-oriented novel, there were some subtle points that made me uncomfortable. This is just my personal opinion.
