The end of the world had arrived just as many had predicted, in a global exchange of nuclear weapons.

What no one predicted was the sudden message that appeared before every living soul moments before impact, a message from "The Administrators" revealing our entire world and everything in it to be a species simulation. According to the message, humanity had been reset over a million times and every single time we could not prevent our own extinction.

No more resets for humanity. No more chances.

They would leave our world an irradiated disaster, but to keep things interesting, they would convert our species simulation to a game for their twisted entertainment.

Digital or not, real or not, I have a family to protect. A wife and daughter who need me, universe be damned. I say bring it on. Welcome to the end of the world.

Welcome to The Great Filter.

in a genre dominated by sad characters that are immediately overpowered and domineering, this book provides a family that works together to push through hard things. There are so many broken cliches that I was caught off guard by several twists.

I feel like this was a really good set up for book 2, I want to see how the base building gets fleshed out and how the group pulls together. I'd love to see a little more character growth in the next book now that the world building is in place. This could be an excellent entourage litrpg (almost more rimworld than skyrim).

Refreshing

I thought it was very well done. Put aside any notions of anything believable and just enjoy the outlandish nature of the book.

Thumbs up

There are little pieces where you can be picky about the info or a situation. But, I'm not even done woth the book and I cant wait for book 2.

Update: Its super Dope! Im feel off balanced and excited all at once. I'm invested. And thats saying something.

Its Dope!

It bugs me a bit that the characters being up a common trope almost right off the bat and the author still let's three intelligent beings conveniently forget it for plot progression. The characters are well thought out but the mistakes they make are stupid given their other actions and back stories.

dencent start not a fan of the climax

story is ok like at the end it says you can’t please everyone but a main character change is equivalent to a different story different book etc... so to end it the way they did isn’t tragic its just poor plot line

its so so

This story was a great read. I wish there was more. I strongly recommend for anyone who enjoys litRPG, survival stories, and light base building. It's an interesting concept and the execution was very entertaining.

A fantastic experience

The description of the book was not what I was expecting. If anyone is familiar with the video game Fallout a post apocalyptic video game you will see many similarities. Overall it was a good book and a good plot. Only reason for a 4 star instead of 5 would be the length of the book, maybe they did this for future books but until they release more this is as high of a grade I can give.

Fallout game style book

So wasn’t expected much post-apocalypse stuff isn’t my thing but it was very fun listen to the whole this in one sitting. The game mechanics remind me of fallout. Can’t wait for the next one definitely goes on the list.

Unexpected gem

I won't spoil it. Had my heart strings pulled this way and that. I can't wait to hear more.
