Could you survive a horror movie?

That's the question Riley must answer after he and his friends get lured to Carousel, a malevolent town where horror movies come to life.

Riley thinks he is in big trouble when he is assigned the Film Buff archetype, a minor support class that has a penchant for dying early in movies. At first resigned to his fate to die over and over, he believes he has found a way to survive. Upon obtaining the Oblivious Bystander trope, monsters and killers will not harm him as long as he can convincingly pretend he has not noticed them. At first, this ability appears to be a joke, but Riley thinks that with some clever exploitation, it might just be his greatest strength.

What to expect:

-Strategic gameplay and clever uses of movie tropes to survive

-Perilous storylines right from your favorite horror movies

-Creative Twists of Classic Horror Movie tropes

-Moderate stats-based combat and strategy

    I don’t really read this type of novels often but this surprised me and I enjoyed it immensely seems well thought out, planned and executed. 9/10 for me

    Despite the fact that I put off reading this work for some time, I still read it in one breath and I really liked it. I was a little surprised when I realized that I had read all the way to the last (currently) released chapter. In any case, I'm really looking forward to new chapters

    Really satisfying to read because the atmosphere of this novel is different from other LitRPGs while still maintaining things like leveling up, skills, etc. .

    And for anyone confused

    Archetype - Class
    Trope - Skill/Trait

    Stats are basically like:

    Mettle - Strength
    Moxie - Charisma (kind of?)
    Hustle - Dexterity/Agility
    Savvy - Intelligence/Wisdom
    Grit - Health/Endurance

    Good story. Not amazing or anything. Decently smart, competent MC who is adapting to these crazy circumstances. World has a lot of depth that is slowly being revealed to us, lots of plot threads introduced that I’m excited to see where they lead.

    Powers are well thought out and interesting, everything running on horror movie logic is really engaging, and MC’s attempts to abuse the power he’s given (one I believe will be his main power) is well-written.

    Fairly interesting and decently written. Unfortunately characters themselves are a bit 2D (still better than the vast majority of fics) and pace I feel is a bit too fast. Decent enough read though. Would recommend just reading this directly on RoyalRoad. Fu#k webnovel, but royalroad is fairly decent and we should support authors there directly if possible.
