Description

“Curiosity is what brought them here. It may also be what destroys them.”

Ethan is 23, jaded by a monotonous life that offers no thrill, no purpose. One day, a cryptic letter lands in his hands, an invitation to partake in an experimental event called Palamine, with the promise of a massive reward. Initially skeptical, he brushes it off as a scam. But as routine eats away at his spirit, curiosity takes hold. He follows the letter’s instructions to the desolate Palamine Coast, searching for something, anything, to make him feel alive again.

What he finds isn’t salvation. It’s Karlos, his old friend and total opposite, standing at the same place, also holding the same letter.

Together, they begin to unravel the truth behind Palamine.

But once you enter, there's no going back. And the experiment? It’s already begun.

I have been reading this web novel for a while now.
And the only thing I have to say is, Though very underrated this Story definitely has the potential to be one of the best out there.
I think this is a new web novel and not getting much attention so as a reader I will give a detailed review
**SPOILER WARNING**
Beginning: 8/10
We open with a character name Ethan who is tired from his life, living a dull, repetitive and a boring life, We are introduced to Ethan in a very detailed and a meaningful way explaining the emptiness of a person stuck in a "Working Life"
We are introduced to the generic best friend Karlos, who is better at Ethan than mostly everything, Smarter, More composed and More strategic, but also humble, kind, polite and an understanding Individual.
Ethan gets a invitation letter at before leaving his house about the "best experimental tools for human", initially declines the idea cause it sounded corny (My opinion) but after re-evaluating everything, after his work-shift was done for the day, decides to go at the address where the invitation asked him to go, where he meets his best friend Karlos who also received the same invitation letter. Where they both face Azerath who guided them to the place where the event is taking place.
In my opinion perfectly paced, might seem slow for some people. But long reader this was perfectly paced.
In my opinion Great Beginning.
Plot: 10/10
The Story revolves around "Phases". From the story uploaded on RoyalRoad we are only on 2 phases, But I read this on WebNovel.com as well.
Each Phases are different, Unique, Deadly or Peaceful. With no pattern, no sequence, nothing, Our Protagonist has to go through these deadly phase's trying to survive, and find a way to escape from this trap. This reminds me of SCP or Danganronpa, Or even Squid game where the people have to survive multiple games. It gives off Liminal Space vibes.
In total there are about 9,999 Phases, All being connected to a tower, from which Ethan can solve
