About this listen

The Apocalypse Game has begun, and all of humanity is up for grabs. To the victor go the spoils.

My name is Killian Dunn. I'm eighteen, a high school senior, a gamer, and, oh yeah, the Harbinger of the Apocalypse. Not exactly what I had in mind as a career path. Reality took a nosedive when Armageddon came knocking. It brought with it classes, levels, and skills, as well as a horde of Lovecraftian abominations to use them on. I never wanted any of this, but the sick god who orchestrated this whole nightmare has my family. Their lives are forfeit if I refuse to play his game.

He left me no choice but to accept my role and play my part—not as just another piece on the chessboard, but as the king—the Demon Lord of the Black. But if I'm the villain, then there must also be a hero. On the side of White stands the Archangel, and they're as determined as I am to win.

The prize? A single wish. With it, I can protect my family, fix everything that's broken, and save the whole damn world.

I just have to destroy it first.

the game is rigged

I would like to start by saying that I enjoyed this book I like how the characters interact and the story moves at a decent pace. But it seems clear to me that the main character should have basically no chance of winning the apocalypse game. The archangel is given every conceivable advantage, they have one month head start, the world is one of the demon Lord ahead of time and all they have to do is ask him what his class is and now he has to lie about it until he's forced to use abilities all of which are clearly demonic in nature. Then there are the pieces which you can give to your allies to give them unique classes. For the archangel this must have been pretty easy see they just find someone who seems good and say do you want help me save the world and boom done, the main character ASDA convince people to join him despite the fact that his end goal is to end the world, admittedly he will then wish for it to be put back together but they have to take that on Faith from him. All and all I have to question if kalisto ever intended for the main character to be able to win and the only reason the main character could possibly stand the chance is if the archangel royally screwed up which they kind of do I won't tell you how since that would be a spoiler.

So all in all well I enjoyed the book the only reason I thought the main character had a chance of winning was because he was the main character and I don't think that's a good thing if it doesn't turn out that callisto had always intended for the main character to fail then there are some serious problems
