1. 1 从 It All Begins with Pretending to Be a God 从假扮神明开始 Idle Clouds Appear闲云现Romance229k WordsCompleted Jiang Li played a game called "Simulating the Gods". In the game, she was the all-powerful ruler of all creation, the cause behind all things in the myriad worlds, the master of time and space, past and future...

   A story without a romantic pairing (although it's tagged as a romance, there's no love story or one-sided romantic feelings). The female lead has the highest status, but her character isn't well-developed, and the plot is mediocre and then fizzles out.

She even summoned a stone, which turned into the Bodhi Seed from 12.2kFavorites18.4kClicks/ch9kGifts

   Curator note

   It's a BG (boy-girl) story with a very weak romantic subplot; you could treat the male lead like a pet to the female lead. The later plot feels rushed, and the female lead's presence diminishes considerably. I quite liked her demon form, but it's a shame it never appeared again. There are some novel and interesting concepts.

   Curator note

   No romantic pairing, and a rather unique writing style. A very cute short story, perfect as a bedtime story. The female protagonist remains hidden behind the scenes, rarely appearing on screen, yet her legend permeates the world. It feels like it satirizes some things x As the title suggests, the gods don't care what the little people do.

   The romance aspect is minimal, mainly residing in the epilogues, which I haven't read yet. The female lead is kind-hearted with a slightly wicked sense of humor. It's a series of heartwarming ghost and supernatural episodic stories; each one has a truly terrifying opening, I couldn't sleep until I finished them all.

   The female protagonist disguises herself as a man without being exposed. A modern take on the "Dihua" style, perfect for those who enjoy forum-style pseudonyms and praising the protagonist! The satisfying face-slapping, the quick revenge, the rapid leveling up, and the satisfying, non-frustrating storyline are all delightful. The writing pace is very comfortable, and the author skillfully leaves clues. A must-read for anyone wanting more.

6. 6 我 I Became the Mother of Monsters in the Future 我在未来做怪物之母 Star Thorn星棘Romance539k WordsCompleted Monster Simulator is a game where players control monsters and conquer the world. Players can unlock different monsters in the game, or design monsters' appearances and attributes themselves. Yu Zhi was a hardcore player of the game. Not only did she complete the entire monster encyclopedia as quickly as possible, she also designed a host of excellent original monsters. Players affectionately called her “Mother of Monsters.” After clearing the game, she contentedly shut down her computer. When 81.6kFavorites165.2kClicks/ch66.5kGifts

   Curator note

   Fans of melodramatic, Mary Sue stories are in for a treat! A perfect start, the female lead is incredibly cool. A boss-type protagonist. The male lead has fewer romantic subplots, perhaps to highlight his difference from the female lead's obedient yet eccentric nature, allowing him to disobey her. However, the female lead is a chuunibyou (delusional) Mary Sue type, and the male lead can't overpower her.

7. 7 魔 Civilization, Remade 魔改文明 Meng Ruoyun梦若云No CP680k WordsCompleted [Important!!! Please read the blurb carefully before reading this story!! If it’s not for you, click the X in the upper-right corner!!] Keywords: A heavily altered world, the transformation of civilization, secret identity roleplay, and a mastermind behind the scenes (a genuine mastermind, not an apparent villain who turns out to be a savior and lover). Wen Jing is a pure, lovely girl with delicate features, a soft voice, and a graceful disposition. That’s what she looks like in this life, an 27.3kFavorites59.8kClicks/ch39.7kGifts

   Curator note

   A no-romance, behind-the-scenes story, an episodic narrative. The alternate identities are of equal gender. Minimal character descriptions. The female lead isn't a saint, but not entirely evil either; she'll hurt others for her own selfish reasons, but will be kind if there's no conflict of interest. The short stories are in different styles, quite good, and the content lives up to the title's "drastically altered" feel.

The bad news: The new humans still couldn't find a cu 116.6kFavorites125kClicks/ch1.8MGifts

   The female lead is seemingly innocent but actually cunning, a truly philanthropic person! The writing style is humorously balanced. She manages infrastructure steadily and skillfully, and excels at nuclear pacification. The male lead is an adorable AI.

    The setup and development were insufficient; how come the female lead treats it like a game? It's an easy, one-shot victory. I dare not follow this update.

    It's so melodramatic and I love it! The boss is so strong and exciting! Some parts of the plot are quite touching. It gets a bit weak in the mid-to-late stages; there are too many layers of settings, making it a bit tiring to watch. The gender ratio is 2 females and 1 male.

    A must-read! The female protagonist lives a bizarre life governed by rules, constantly facing natural disasters. Lots of plot points; the author clearly has a lot of gaming experience. The female protagonist's boyfriend is hardly a background character; he's more of a figurehead and has absolutely no impact on the story.
