Summary

Qube was designed to die....

As the cheerful childhood NPC companion who helps the [Player] learn the world during the start of the game, it was only natural that the big bad would kill her at the end of the tutorial, kick-starting the [Player] on a quest for vengeance.

The only thing is, no one told her that.... And this particular [Player] doesn’t like to play by the rules. Being a chaos-loving gremlin, he glitches her out of her programming loop and drags her on various adventures. They'll grapple with friendly sharktopuses, evil emperors, and what it means to be a person.

On the way, they pick up equally unlikely party members, with Qube breaking the world in increasingly strange ways as she seeks to be the very best companion ever.

All the while, Qube herself slowly realizes that her reality is not quite what it seems....

Experience the start of a GameLit/LitRPG series about an NPC freed of its programming loop and brought along on a player's journey of adventure and power progression. A loving parody of old-school games, Dungeons and Dragons, and every player who has ever thought, “What happens if I do this?”

A good story but surprisingly serious

I was expecting a fun story about breaking things in a LitRPG setting but that wasn't really the core of it. There was one break and things spiralled from there but the main character is an NPC who is out of place because of it.

That NPC's thoughts/feelings/emotions as she tries to understand the world around her, the problems with it, the ethics and the horrible nature of her situatiom were really impactful and left more of an emotional impact on me than I expected. The external debates on the nature of AI were interesting too.

The setting and other characters were both juvenile and, beyond the surface level, quite deep. The narration was spectacular too. I would definitely recommend this book although I think the story could have been wrapped up in a slightly longer book 1 rather than doing 2 books.

“Fire solves problems”

A brilliant deconstruction of video games and the LitRPG world. Really enjoyed it throughout!
The multi-narration works really well with some great character voices!
Can’t wait to see what comes next.
This is my honest opinion on a free review copy.

teehee

Funny and engaging, if you like the litrpg genre it's a refreshing take on it. Excellent performance by the narrators, brings the story to life without it feeling forced or cheesy.
