By the creator of Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon: can the strangely realistic characters in a mysterious video game bring meaning to one man's life...and help him reconnect with the "real world"? Don't miss the manga, also from Seven Seas! Yoshio is thirty years old, and his life is a mess. A shut-in living with his parents, he has no job, no relationship, and no prospects. When he receives a new sim computer game that boasts characters created with a new kind of A.I., he doesn’t think much of it–until he gets drawn into a fantasy world so vibrant and lifelike that its residents can’t just be game characters. Suddenly finding himself the benevolent god of a scrappy fantasy village is a lot for Yoshio to handle, but it might be the key to the change he desperately needs.

Thanks to being selected as a player of the mysteriously realistic Village of Fate, Yoshio's life has been changing for the better. Everything seems to be going well for him these days, and the village welcomes its newest residents: Kan and Lan, a pair of furry friends. Yet a sudden real-life PVP encounter brings Yoshio head-to-head with another gamer with a strikingly dark goal. The fate of the village hangs in the balance as two gods clash!

Magical calamity has sent Rudeus to the opposite end of the world! But the journey itself is not without its own excitement. On the way to his hometown, he comes to the aid of a rather scantily-clad young girl. In return for his aid, she offers to grand him a wish, anything that he wants. The ability he receives is certainly powerful and Rudeus soon finds himself getting glimpses into the future--but even a fancy new power can't keep him out of trouble.

As a long-time unemployed loser, Yoshio's relationship with his family is strained at best. Worst of all, thanks to failing her during a terrifying incident, his sister has complete contempt for him. But lately, Yoshio's life has rapidly begun to change. It's all thanks to receiving an invite to beta-test a mysterious game known as the Village of Fate--a game so amazingly realistic that its characters almost seem like real people. Playing the role of a "God of Fate" protecting a small group of villagers, the game gives new meaning to Yoshio's dull existence, and soon begins to reveal unexpected new opportunities, some of them even affecting the real world.

Ever since he was selected to beta test the mysteriously realistic game, "The Village of Fate," Yoshio's slowly been putting his life back together. Helping save the villagers was the catalyst he needed to help himself. Yet there's one big scar that Yoshio hasn't addressed: The convicted stalker who tormented his sister and wounded him with a knife. When the stalker reappears, could it mean the end of everything that changed for the better...?

After spending his twenties as a shut-in, Yoshio's life has begun to change, thanks to getting his hands on an incredible game called "The Village of Fate." Its graphics are amazing, and the characters are so lifelike that they seem almost like real people. In order to protect them, Yoshio even landed a part-time job to afford the in-game currency. His strained family relationships may be on the mend, but he'll need every extra point his new income can buy. The "Day of Corruption" is fast approaching, and his villagers will be tested by hordes of ravenous monsters. With the NPCs short on weapons and manpower, can Yoshio protect them until the dawn?
