  Good fic, just a shame it hasn’t updated recently. I hope the author picks it back up once they’ve settled down in japan

  As of chapter 25
  Author knows what a novel is and knows how to put it down. Easily trumps everything else I have read on the site.
  Highest Plus?
  Pacing and development. Kyle and Sarah are easily the most developed characters with backstories and traits enhanced and displayed. That said, you get the sense that the other characters are alive for the most part.
  Most novels and stories waste time giving endless lists of the MC's stats without offering points of reference to show whether it is good or bad. Author almost fell into the same pit with Kyle's development where it looked like secret dungeon survivors were but lightly enhanced beings. With chapter 25, it became all to clear that this was far from the truth; those that went through experiences similar to Kyle's are far and above the rest in terms of their abilities and this shows in Kyle's mental attitude/mindset when the party he is in takes pride in their success at an outing while he is confused at their joy. Awesome writing.
  PS: Please keep up the pace and quality.
  PPS: Not bothering with elaborating on character, grammar and style scores; don't need to and the author obviously exceeds my own skills.

  I love how the story starts and is progressing; but seing how this is a review I have to say some elements are repeated in this story from others, yet the way he uses them is interesting. To speak of grammar there are mistakes but it's only perhaps twice per chapter or less so far. I'm making this review only as chapter 1-12 are out but I've got it say, I'm still hyped for more.

  As GIANTS said, this is a really promising story, with simple and enjoyable mechanics and not the usually childish, clichè story and characters. There is room for some improvements in the author's writing style,but I'm sure they will come as the story (and writing) progresses.
  The flow is really nice and even though it might, to some, seem a bit rushed at the beginning, it might too just give you that explosive start that will hook you up, adding all the important info on worldbuilding and character development bit by bit, with every new chapter (so there won't be the usual info dumps), uncovering new info with the characters themselves.
  The story is quite promising, succeeding in keeping the interest fresh even with such an overused theme as the "dungeon diving/rpg apocalypse" . Surely fun to read :)
  The grammar is quite good,with only a couple of typos here and there.
  The characters seem to take life with every new chapter, slowly showing their personality and background.
  Praises to the thoughts the author went through in building the system for this story: really interesting, managing to preserve rpg elements while trying to make the system as less game-like as possible. Really cool XD
  That said,give it a try!

  Interesting plot starting the story not with the institution of "The System" but some time after the "Event".
  Good character building, no shallow stereo types that dominated the story, a romantic interest as well.
  Eager to read the rest and encourage others to read this,
  As I have only read up to chapter 20 at this point the story is worth reading.

  Ideas and concepts are good but they suffer greatly by very lack luster characters trying to present them.  The characters seem to be of lower intelligence and have more childish personalities, of about a 9 or 10 year old, instead of their age.  How can the characters have no knowledge of BASIC COMMON skills if it plastered all over the internet AND a MAJOR PART OF SOCIETY in that world.  I just feel information presented by these basic side characters (supposed to be a protagonist) is lack luster and SEVERLY hurts the story.  Maybe throw in some more personality development. Increase the time it takes to get stronger, only 4 dungeons at the academy, been there a short time and already at the hardest???  What does the academy do? What kind of information do they give because it seems to be none at all...
  I think the story itself is good though with some flaws that should be flushed out.

  First there may be spoilers for up to chapter 11 you have been warned.
  The story so far was good. The mc feels like an ordinary person in a classic world turned rpg. For the story, everything seems to be going well except for the bland background of everyone and their dog and the interactions being static and falling flat. Though the story is rather new and with the latest twist and limited numbers I am expecting better interractions between them. The thing that threw me for a loop in the story at first was the competance of the goverment and everyones seeming stellar behaviour and no apperant abuse of the power disparancy. It made me happy that ı was right about higher help and made me chuckle. The chapter 11 wall writing I personally found as a great message and hope the story continues for a long time involving attacks on other worlds and the mc and co. meeting their maker, that will be great if it happens.
  My hope is  you don't drop the story and continue to write it. As so many promising stories fell when they had a bright future and I think this is one of them.

  Maybe the third book I find based on exponential mana regen is gonna have some form of common sense or realism in it?
  this book might not be absolutely terrible but so far this is the second book based on exponential mana regen that I've read which just so happened to abandon any attempt at common sense a few chapters in. At least this one doesn't have the Supreme ruler of humanity keeping an eye on the main character because all of his friends and companions suddenly were discovered to be the most talented humans in history with the most potential in all of history because the author said "f*ck it, power gain go brrrrrrr!"... ... ... wait... ... no... please don't tell me this one does the same thing... yknow what nevermind I don't even wanna know, goodbye.
  Oh but before I go lemme give you more info,, If you're reading this book, seems like some aspects of the book have a bit of effort put into them by the author, like a bare minimum attempt at guestimating the time needed to regen mana, but it seems like everything else is just kinda chucked there somewhere, like the sizes of prize pools and contestants averaging 4 or 5 points per person
  I think it said around 100-1000 was worth like a cheap skill
  in possibly deadly matches which all the newly admitted and not whatsoever trained kids agree to without hesitation saying there's no reason to not do so, and society as a whole just suddenly deciding they were all friendly and dungeons were normal and the government just somehow knew about it beforehand and everyone was just chill. I mean I refuse to even count how many plot holes in just that little bit there and the amount of nonsense going on is just ridiculous. And I mean the guys team mates figured out how to save a couple bucks and save a little bit of time and the author added in an evil laugh from one of the chicks for suspense at the end of the chapter to make you think it was some amazing realization only to tell you in the next that it was literally just not

  I came only till chapter 5 before i had enough. He uses prices since the start - for skills, enhancments etc. They just dosnt make sense if you see how much a noob group makes in half a day, on the first day when they move in the "shool" - more like dungeons + dorms (there is not more to it).
  Then the autor trys to explain that bullshit in the comments instead of doing it in the story itselfe. I mean if you drop that much info in the comment section, pls go back to chapter one and start to rewrite it. Its only 5 chapters to that point so it should have been possible, right?
  I mean how would you feel if you read a story, the economics dosnt make sense, the timeline the story follows dosnt make sense too, and then in chapter 5 you read in the comment section multiple long explanaitions about the world, the economics and you learn: "oh those changes where not that long" (he says). Yet it must be already more then 7 years - but the diving in to the dungeons is only "save" since a month, beofe it was with a 80% death rate...
  It so dosnt add up what the autor writes, so i realy had to stop and write this comment, sorry.
