A gamer has only one chance to escape the glitchy dreamscape of The Game or risk losing her mind... and her life.

Meet "The Game": software that induces an online dreamscape where players can complete quests, pass missions and achieve everything they ever wanted. With nearly 12 million players on its launch date, it's the biggest success the corporate gaming community has ever seen. Even with the few hundred pirated players that managed to sneak in for a free ride. 

When the servers crash, hundreds of gamers are trapped inside The Game's now glitchy fantasy world and according to a random message mixed with rumour, their only chance at freedom is reaching a moderator. 

Newb player, BAD_KITTY_69, is separated from her boyfriend and teammate DASHING_WILLIAM_19 hours after the glitch that disconnected them from the menu system, rendering them unable to save their progress or exit The Game. 

Kitty teams up with a stray player to head for the moderators on Bang-Bang Island's infamous Arena. But as her and LUCY_FUR_666 make their way over the changing rifts of The Game, Kitty begins to realise that Lucy is not all he seems. And every rift brings new surprises, new terrors, and a deeper understanding about what's really happening inside The Game.  

As the glitches start to become more frequent, the players still trapped inside have to begin accepting the fact that they might be trapped in The Game forever.

Rimelion: The Exploiter by MarekSusicky
81 parts Ongoing
What is reality? I was John-now Charlie, a woman with a VR game tester's cunning and a professional whiskey enthusiast's attitude. But then AIs have risen, and my job evaporated faster than last night's drink. Just when I hit rock bottom, this punk kid-barely old enough to shave-dropped a bombshell: "Reality's just a simulation." Sure, buddy. I laughed it off. Until I woke up twenty years in the past. Now, thanks to a hacking mishap, I'm a regular girl in reality-with a debt and an attitude-navigating Rimelion, the VR game I once mastered, as Charlie, an elven priestess with more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Seriously though, fighting in high heels? Will I claw my way up the nobility ladder? Dominate the rankings? Outwit the government and their plans to exploit us all? Maybe. But something's off. The game feels too real. My memories don't line up, and everyone has their own version of what's true. Simulation? Reality? The lines are a blur-and I'm stuck in the middle. If I want to stop a dystopian future, I'll need allies, both in-game and out. Oh, and avoid ticking off the AIs hunting me for bending the rules. Survival's a long shot-but I was never one to play fair anyway. *** What to expect: - Light LitRPG story with an emphasis on strategy and world-building - First-person perspective (and occasional close third POVs) - A witty protagonist with a conversational sarcastic, humorous and often self-deprecating voice - A sci-fi world with mysteries sprinkled with fantasy elements - A rich game world system with kingdoms, rules, exploits, and challenges - Supporting characters with personal goals Schedule: * Posting on RoyalRoad and Scribblehub, here after bulk is done

Minecraft...its a game where if you are killed in it, you get another chance. But there is this glitch, that Notch calls it anyway, in the Minecraft software. A glitch that is very dangerous and occurs once a year for certain people. This glitch affected a famous YouTuber, TheBajanCanadian. During a livestream of a Hunger Games, he found him not able to see straight, hearing voices, and feeling sick. Mitch was playing with ASFJerome and Vikkstar123HD. The people watching Mitch's stream noticed Mitch acting weird, and then he passed out suddenly. Jerome and Vikk shut down the stream and raced to Mitch to shut down his stream and find out what's wrong. But later they found out 499 other people passed out under the same circumstances as Mitch, expect not on stream of course. But the questions are coming about what happened to cause this and will the 500 victims ever wake up? Well, Mitch found himself trapped in a more deadly version of Minecraft that he never expected and it's up to The Pack to figure out how to save Mitch and the other 499 people, before time runs out and they become nothing but mere programs trapped forever in Minecraftia or become stray pixels.
