The Cursed Lands - Eldritch West LitRPG Isekai
Would you really want to go inside the world of a tabletop RPG and see what it’s like?Even if the game is horror-themed?On their shared 20th birthday, friends Andrew and Marilyn receive an unusual, mysterious present: the rules for an obscure 1990s Wild West horror RPG. Unfortunately, the seemingly amazing ‘gift’ transports their minds into the game setting – the twisted Old West nightmare known as the Cursed Lands. Trapped as their characters and far out of their element, the duo will have to learn to fight, scavenge, and master the rules that govern this twisted dimension.Will Colt Williams and Rebecca the Watcher save these dark lands and return to the real world? Or will the Dark Powers claim two more souls?Inspired by the likes of Blood West and For a Fistful of Dollars, The Cursed Lands takes a spin on old RPGs, Wild West tropes, and eldritch horror, bringing a grim tale of survival and desperation where nobody is truly good… and nowhere is truly safe.What to Expect:- Eldrich West setting. There will still be lots of humans, but also lots of monsters (and beings that combine both)-Early signs of Industrial Revolution-tech (trains, firearms, etc.) alongside magic and the occult (potions, curses, etc.)-Two MCs who are inexperienced at first, but slowly grow into (anti)-heroesWhat not to Expect:-OP MC(s).-No Harem-As in my other books, no System favoritism, OP loopholes, or get-rich-quick schemes. The characters will fail sometimes, and characters can die, at least temporarily.Cover art is AI-generated
