How does it feel to lose your parents at the tender age of four?Imagine the trauma, the psychological scars. Now, take it a step further—what if they died right in front of you?That was Kael’s reality. As a young boy, he watched his parents perish while desperately protecting a golden coin.At the time, Kael had no idea of its significance. He only knew that their deaths were tied to it.Fleeing from his father’s murderers, he was forced to survive on the unforgiving streets, learning to fight, steal, and endure.Twelve years later, he had transformed into one of the deadliest assassins the world had ever known.He had no official title. No known employer. No traceable identity. Just a calling card.They called him The Coin Flipper.Not because he left his mark, but because after every kill—just as the body hit the ground, as the last breath escaped—he would flip a coin.No one knew why. Some believed it was mockery, a cruel reminder that fate had turned against them. Others thought it was ritual.But what they didn’t know was that each coin held power—literal currency of the Core System embedded in Kael’s soul.Every kill earned him millions. Digital fortunes funneled into off-grid accounts with each confirmed target. Blood turned into bounty, pain into profit.And one thing was certain: if you saw the glint of a coin spinning through the air, death had already found you.

Meng Shu travels to a very backward world of suspense and horror,

Got a game development system that monkeys can use.

In this parallel world where VR has been popularized,

You can buy step-by-step tutorials for all games in the previous life by collecting the player’s scare value.

What game can scare players?

Scary horror game!

Therefore, in this unpopular field that no one cares about,

He used the system to develop one after another VR version of horror games that scared the shit out of players.

“Escape” made the players love and hate, complaining endlessly, saying that their hearts couldn’t bear it.

“Face” puts players on high alert, frightened every step of the way, and then yells “Fuck” when they are frightened by the noise of the radio.

“Amnesia” caused the players’ San value to plummet, and they were always in pain and torture surrounded by fear.

“The Evil Within” allows players to experience the sensory impact of blood and flesh, as well as the scream of fear of being chased by monsters.

“Alien Isolation” allows players to see the horror of aliens for the first time in history, so that they dare not shoot with a gun.

“Living Brain Cells”, “Silent Hill”, “Resident Evil”, “Layers of Fear”, “Apsoff”, “Midnight Harem of Teddy Bear”, “Dead Soul”, “Paper People”, “Dead Space”, “Haunted House” and so on .

Every one of his horror and horror games can make players all over the world scream!
