1. 1 恐 Terrifying Nightmare: Extreme Survival in a Bizarre World 恐怖噩梦：我在诡异世界极限逃生 Young Bear年轻熊Mystery1.2M WordsOngoing [Infinite-flow, mildly scary, no romance] Wang Yan wearily opened his front door. Inside, he saw the woman next door holding and soothing a baby, staring at him in terror. “Sorry, I’ve got the wrong apartment.” He quickly apologized and backed out, then slammed the door shut. Standing in the pitch-black hallway, he found himself unable to decide what was more terrifying: seeing his female neighbor in his home, or seeing the baby who had died long ago… 410.7kReads9.4Score78kShelves

   The first book is a model that has been imitated by many, with a strong horror atmosphere and dungeons that make you despair. The second book is an ensemble piece, without any cheat codes or romantic pairings; you have to rely entirely on your intelligence to get through the levels. The ghosts are very sinister, and the horror atmosphere is very intense. Several times I was worried that the protagonist would perish in the dungeons.

   The first book needs no introduction; Lao Yan really thrives under pressure. The ghosts are incredibly cunning, and both the male and female characters are intelligent. It's super enjoyable, and the ensemble cast is truly amazing. I highly recommend the second book. The initial levels are relatively easy, but if you persevere and read a few more chapters, the difficulty gradually increases, and the plot twists are also exciting. It's definitely worth reading.

    The first book is a new work by the author of *Ghost Eyes*, continuing the style of the original. So, if you're looking for a story where the ghosts are invincible (meaning you can clear the game without even touching them), full of plot twists, with everyone intelligent, and the protagonist having no cheat codes or harem, don't miss it if you're so scared you're afraid to get out of bed! The second book is second only to *Ghost Eyes* in my opinion. It has tons of interesting and thrilling scenarios to choose from, and none of them feel forced or unintelligent. The teammates aren't just background characters waiting to be rescued. The entire storyline is very suspenseful, and the author does a great job with the mystery. The third book excels in its unique premise, especially the first scenario, which is absolutely mind-blowing—highly recommended!
