Not bad, but a pretty dark story. It's still ongoing, I think. I stopped because I don't have very high tolerance for this genre, so after 800+ chapters had to leave for brighter pastures. Kinda got tricked, tbh.. the synopsis, in translation, "Would you believe me officer, if I said this is a healing game?" So if I remember correctly... MC is a minor actor that's not doing well, living in an old apartment. Totally jaded with life and apathetic to his life, wondering why life is so gray and dull to him... Then, a new mysterious VR game starts in that world, and once you log in, you can't log out for a specific time or until you complete a mission (forgot minor details on this, maybe) instead of joining everyone else on the surface of the game world like a normal al game, he spawns/enters the hidden world. His forced starting point is a haunted room in an mysterious apartment... very similar to his own in reality 😉 1st mission was like, survive till dawn, I think. After he survived and logged out, he never felt more alive and how vivid everything seemed... I laughed at that point, not gonna lie.. definitely was not the "healing" game mc thought he was getting [was author inspired by Saw? who knows] And he has game missions, horror themed, and he gets stats as he survives and passes missions. These stats/skills help him become a better actor, stronger body, etc. oh, and did I mention the npc's he meets seem to be ghosts of real people from his world,... resulting in him participating in fighting and being hunted by serial killers, etc.. Don't mind my rambling, might delete later 🙃

!! Dropped !! Dont read after chapter 46! In a world consumed by the rat race, Haruto Oshima stood out as a bright student who despised the rat race everyone seemed trapped in. His dream? A life filled with success, excitement, and lots of wealth alongside his middle school girlfriend, Kanna. Haruto devoted himself intensely to his study, Achieving brilliant success in every exam, and took decisive steps toward achieving the life he aimed for. However, everything changed when Haruto's girlfriend Kanna broke up with him during their last year of middle school, leaving him deeply affected. Just as he was suffering from overwhelming sorrow, the world got hit with a virus known as Covid-19! After years of struggle, the world finally recovered from the pandemic, and people resumed their normal lives. However things didn't remain the same for Haruto Oshima, his educational path was suddenly brought to standstill, costing him five years of his educational life. Haruto’s lack of education forced him to do an ordinary job at a mall as a counter boy forcing him to live a life he always hated, plunging him into boredom and eventually into depression. Things keep getting worse for Haruto as his hatred for his own life started increasing day by day, eventually a tragic event hit his life forcing him to join a game named “Smiley Face Game” where players compete against each other in hope of winning millions of dollars. Unaware of the fact that this seemingly innocent game would turn into a “Human Massacre Game!”
