Books Like Enter System

Many role-playing video games have drawn inspiration from classic fantasy stories, particularly those by J.R.R. Tolkien. However, the LitRPG genre has reversed this trend by featuring fantasy or even science fiction stories with role-playing game elements. These are commonly things such as character classes, statistics, and level progression while performing quests or defeating monsters. For example, in Enter System by Tom Larcombe, a young man named Marc works with others to create a Safe Zone after their world is changed by a “System” that has access to everyone. Check out the following books like Enter System for more literary role-playing game fiction.

The protagonist, Randidly, has a tougher time than most when he starts in an isolated Dungeon that is far beyond his level. Randidly manages to survive after several hellish months in the dungeon, only to find that for everyone else on Earth only half a day had passed.

Johnson Battleforged by M.H. Johnson offers an interesting take on the litRPG genre by setting it in a post-apocalyptic world where fragile humans are simply trying to survive the beast hordes overrunning the planet. The protagonist, Eric, is determined to beat the odds and make use of the alien vegetative pods that can give a chosen few the ability to level up, embrace magic, and adventure, and gain the potential for limitless power. However, these pods are more likely to turn people into topsoil than give them a shot at mastering a System designed for elite invaders. Nevertheless, Eric is undeterred, and while he isn’t capable of saving the world he does have a handful of new friends and a plan to steal a priceless fortune.  System Change By SunriseCV System Change is the first novel in the System Universe series by SunriseCV.
