Description
What do you get when you cross Home Alone, Isekai, litrpg, and a farming simulator? You get Arnold’s life, that’s what you get.
Accidentally murdered by a cleric in another universe in a botched resurrection, Arnold, a semi-pro gamer, finds himself incarnated into the overweight corpse of that universes version of him. It could be a bad joke, but apparently, it happens so often that they have a standard procedure for returning you.
That standard procedure doesn't apply to Arnold.
Now stuck on a new earth with no way home, Arnold must use his gaming skills to figure out how to level his farmer class to 100 and gain a new class that doesn't make him want to beat his head against the wall. There is one little problem. Farmers don't gain experience from killing monsters. Like at all.
Follow Arnold as he comes to grips with his new reality and discovers creative ways to improve it.(The first two novels have been removed because they were published on Amazon. This is the continuation of the story.)Amazon links below. (Available on Kindle Unlimited.)Book 1:Oh Great! I was Reincarnated as a FarmerBook 2Oh, Great!

- Andrew616Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0I enjoyed this series immensely, I read it here on RR, and again on my kindle. The characters are well developed, with great personalities, and the system is a lot of fun, and makes decent sense.
The plot progression is great, and it makes sense how the power level developed.
It's definitly worth a read! - Anon8Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is one of the few stories where the rating is not indicative of the story's quality. The rating fell because the author decided to move his work over to Kindle, even though he stated his intention to do so in the very first chapter. Good plot, Solid worldbuilding, good MC and excellent grammar.
- ApexreadingRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Character: 7
World Building: 7.5
Plot: 8
Overall: feels great to follow the MC on his adverture in the new world. Had a thrill as he discovered exploits in the system and socitial structure, as well as the action scenes. Bye the end of the story i really wanted to stay in this world and continue following the MC's progession.
Conclusion: I really enjoyed the story (read it on Kindle), i just came here looking for word on Book 2... Anything hallening? - Cozy_OwlRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0One of the best stories on the site. Well writen. Interesting tridimensonal characters. Very funy. The fights until now were very good. One of the rare stories in witch the MC recieves information in a reasonable way, at a reasonable pace. Speaking of pace, the pace of the story is great!
- F.L. RileyRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The roles of people in this world are stringent. Your class is determined at birth, and only by reaching level 100 can you do anything about it.
For someone summoned to this world by mistake, those restrictions are just waiting to be exploited.
As a farmer, the only way to level up is to gain experience from events that impact his farm. He finds the easiest fastest way to level is to kill while protecting his farm. - PureAyRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Great besides first chapter
In first chapter there is a future scene which i advise to skip and he also beats a child which is hella *.
Skip the future part. Even firat chapter rewrite id advise to do the same. Really ruins any suprise like all future scenes in everything do. Its like immediately telling you this is the destination which in my opinion is one of the things that kinda ruins any suprise. It makes it were theres never a moment were your thinking whats happening next really - ShanefromONTRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I got this book because I loved the title. It was well written and I was drawn into the main character's pain and then triumphs.Even after reading several other LITRPG books and a few series this one remains on top. Mainly because of how I've gotten invested in MC life.
It has a warning about sexual content, but this isn't a soft core novel. MC is a young adult and he has some adult relations. There is also talk about some kinks to tease the Main character.
I bought the second book the week it came out and I'm waiting (patiently I must say) for the third book. - SuccotashRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is a fun tongue in cheek reincarnation story. The world is absurd and it knows it. That makes the characters better. This world starts as any other world would, like a video game. The problem is the video game our hero is forced to play is a farming simulator.
The best parts about the story is that there is crafting, stat gains and combat, but all of it is hindered by a system designed to keep people in their place. Yes in this system classes are really part of a hereditary class system. Warriors can only be warriors, blacksmiths can only be blacksmiths, and farmers can only be farmers. That means the only way you can gain experience is if you do class things. A farmer can't just go out in the woods and kill stuff for experience, they are supposed to plant crops and harvest things to get experience.
Well meet Arnold the farmer who doesn't want to farm on his quest to not be a farmer.
Worth the read!
A very interesting take on the class system that I am surprised I have never seen before. I expect that there will be other analogies into how things work in our world that are equally well done and humorous. - VictoriaRoughton72Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0Wonderful read.50 word salad. I am so glad you have been able to get the job done with the same problem and get some good work and make them work for the job and make them work for the job and make them work for the job and make them work for the job. Sorry!
- ZorigemRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0OMG this is actually one of my favorite book series ever. I truly enjoyed getting to know each character, and I'm actually anxiously awaiting book 3 to come out. One of the best stories on the site, by far. Well written. Interesting, loveable characters. the humor is on point, i laughed out loud many times and was smiling all throughout the book. The stats are interesting without being overwhelming in the story. Pace of the story is very good. The genre itself is a slow burn genre, so just prep yourself to get through the first few chapters before the story really unfolds and comes to life. Great work, thank you for the book. great isekai story about a farmer who doesn't want to farm, but i hope he grows into it and i hope he settles into his new world. Overall, a great story, and i would reccommend it to people who are familiar with the genre and like the genre.
My favorite character is actually the grumpiest character in the book, but i wont spoil anything. All the characters are great, and the MC is likeable with believeable flaws. the style of the author is good, and i didn't catch and grammar errors. I think this is one of the best written stories on this site.
