It all started when the protagonist downloaded a game called "The Fool (Beta Version)," marking a pivotal shift in the style of his life. This was no ordinary game; it lacked visuals and music, composed solely of lines of text and a multitude of choices. Yet, each decision within the game had the power to alter the player's destiny, for on the other side of the game lay a real, unknown world. Players were unable to physically enter this otherworld or see its landscapes, experiencing the alternate realm solely through text, vicariously living each step of their character's journey. As the game progressed, not only could rewards from the game materialize in the real world, but creatures from the game began to appear in reality as well. Then came the day the game was released for global public testing. An era quietly unfolded, where the masses embarked on explorations and treasure hunts in an alternate universe through 'textual adventure,' heralding a new chapter of engagement and discovery.

Bronze WINNER of WPC#322: Male Lead: Zombie Invasion Takemi Kazuichi might very well be the luckiest and unluckiest person in the world. He was an orphan, and he was severely bullied in school. Because of that, he became a hikikomori, a shut-in. When he turned sixteen, he was adopted by a rich couple who loved him as if he was their own son. Unfortunately, they died in a plane crash, and Kazuichi never overcame his bad habits of being a shut-in, largely because of his preying relatives. Fast forward to four years later, Takemi Kazuichi still stayed in the house left by his late parents. He never bothered going to work or going out to socialize with people. For the lack of a better term, he was a rich hikikomori. He never even bothered to check the news or log in on any social media. All he did was live his life in solitude, devoid of any human interaction. One day, as he came out of the shower, he heard a strange thumping sound by the doorway. "That's weird, I didn't order any delivery today." He told himself before absent-mindedly opening the door. And what stared back didn't resemble a human at all. It was a zombie— or so that's what the first thing that came into Kazuichi's mind. Unbeknownst to him, the world had drastically changed, and he was the last one to know.

Eighteen-year-old Nabil suddenly finds himself transported to a dangerous, game-like world along with 50 other players. Scattered across a vast realm of 10 continents, the players quickly realize that while this world bears striking similarities to a popular game they once knew, it is no virtual landscape. Instead, it is a reality created by a higher-dimensional god, who has sent them here for his own twisted form of gambling entertainment. This god watches from his dimension as the players struggle for survival, their fates dangling by the thread of his whims. The rules are brutal. Each player has one year—365 days—to find a way out. However, only five can escape, leaving the others trapped in this deadly world, or worse, condemned to an unknown fate. The stakes are high: killing another player grants points, and accumulating enough points may be the only way to secure one of the five spots for freedom. Alliances will form, and betrayals are inevitable, as desperation pushes players to act in ways they never imagined. Nabil, initially feeling hopeless, is seemingly dealt the weakest ability among all the players: the power to control pets. Compared to others who possess flashy and devastating skills, his ability appears laughable at first. Worse, he has no additional skills to rely on—only his wits, his ability to command creatures, and his will to survive. Yet, as Nabil explores this dangerous world, he soon learns that his power may hold more potential than he ever imagined. In a realm filled with monstrous beasts, rival players, and deadly environments, his pet control ability could be his key to survival. Through taming and commanding various creatures, Nabil begins to develop a unique strategy that allows him to take on both powerful enemies and cunning rivals. But Nabil knows the harsh reality: every player is a threat. As alliances shift and tensions rise, he must carefully navigate who to trust and who to eliminate. With limited time and a finite number of players allowed to return home, the competition grows deadlier by the day. Nabil’s journey is not just about brute strength; it’s a test of cunning, survival instincts, and the ability to uncover the true potential of his seemingly weak power. As he uncovers more about this mysterious world, Nabil begins to question the motives of the higher-dimensional god who put them here. Is there more to this cruel game than just survival? What hidden secrets does this god’s world hold, and is there a way to outsmart the rules entirely? Nabil must not only survive but find a way to escape this nightmare—before it consumes him and the others entirely.
