From the depths of despair, a new legend will rise.
Nathan Cheng, known in the gaming world as Nil, is anything but ordinary. With four consecutive game jam wins under his belt, his mind is brimming with big ideas, but reality has other plans. Resources are scarce, and grief over his sister's murder has left him feeling hollow and furious. If only he could have saved her.
When he’s thrown into an arcane world bound by a familiar system, Nathan is offered an impossible deal: defeat the Dark King and return home to the moment before his sister’s death… or die trying. The catch? Like all warriors of light, he will start at level one with nothing.
To survive, Nathan must harness his perfect memory and deep knowledge of game systems to level up faster than anyone thought possible. The dark armies are endless, the clock is ticking, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
Victory means rewriting his sister’s fate. Failure means losing everything, forever.
In The System of Nil the mechanics are far more complex than they appear with thousands of hidden secrets waiting to be discovered and exploited. Every powerful weapon, item, and skill is gated behind tricks, traps, and unimaginable horrors. To prevail Nil must be a skilled warrior, investigator, crafter, and monster hunter. It’ll take more than just brains. He’ll need a mountain of grit and guts. But that’s just fine. He wouldn’t have it any other way.
