First, the Blue Screens came,

Transforming their lives into a game,

Life will never ever be the same.

    Why I dunno review that? For sure, I ask myself. Why? It is what People call a Litrpg Apocalypse and one of my absolute favorit genres in Web Novels.
    So the concept which is used to represent and well known genre is in some ways strange beside the point it feels so different it could be new and that should be reason enough to give the story a chance.
    About the Main Character cant be told much. Everything I could say feels like an introduce to explain the mainly personal parts of him. He is interesting and special enough you got the progression value of MC.
    The dialogues and the world are well created. The Author knows to use them giving readers the feeling that could be real. That everything you read just happened next to you.
    The biggest part is still the strange way of concept in which ways the apocalypse came along our beloved character and as I said before it is also the biggest reason to read. If you really want something other and different dont miss that story!
    You may regret it if you missing that special jewel.
    Greetings, Seelen.

    As a fellow wage slave I really vibed with this guy immediately. Better yet the bomb strapped to him that's going to end his life eventually gave me "30 minutes or less" vibes while also being the most adorable bomb delivery system I've seen in a good long while.
    This story is easy to consume. The plot isn't heavy, there is no deep meaning, and its not gonna mess with you. Reading this story could be done high and wasted or legally sober. Its a trip all on its own. From dungeons that seem to have different litrpg mechanics in each one to minigames and sidequests.
    There ain't no litrpg with out blue screens. And this story is a new twist on that. Where the blue screens were the friends we made a long the way. So if you want the characters to suffer through blue screens when you don't want to. Look no further than this story. It has zero you have to read and a million for the mc to deal with.

    Are you expecting something super duper serious
    Well, just keep on looking, but I bet you’re curious
    If you want a wild ride through the genre, silly fun
    This should fit the bill, because it’s sure a silly one
    The style is pretty much your standard first person gamelit
    The author’s clearly just trying to have some fun with it
    All the screens are written down in sentence form like this
    If you MUST have blue coloured screens, give this one a miss
    The story is a play on lots of tropes that we all love
    A normal bloke who does his utmost when push comes to shove
    The world is falling quickly into chaos, things are bad
    But it’s a satire, so plenty of goofy times are had
    The characters are funny, they all play the roles we know
    It’s too early in the story to judge harshly though
    Basically, I like the ones I’ve read, they do their thing
    At least in the context of the end of everything
    The grammar is alright, it’s not like it is hard to read
    But there’s typoes in need of a hard-edit indeed
    Don’t get hung up on it though, we’re not here for shakespeare
    This book would still be crazy should the typoes disappear
    All in all, you’re gonna read this book for one reason
    Yo uneed a good dose of weird to get through the season
    Turn your brain off and dive in, it’s shameless, mindless fun
    Though be warned, such madness is not meant for everyone
