Our MC is a survival enthusiasts and joins a holographic survival game where the players are put into extreme conditions and they have to survive for 15-20 of days. They also have to maintain their Satiety (Must eat/drink), Hygiene/Cleanliness (must use soap/cleaning products) and Energy/Stamina (HP?). Or else they would get a negative status and their HP will be lowered until they're kicked out of the game.

This is really really interesting for me cos of the survival games, but its not so dramatic cos it's really just a game, not life-and-death like in other unlimited flow novels. Our MC's strategy is actually to just mind her own business and survive in her own way. Her plan is mostly to hoard supplies and then spend the days quietly holed up. She meets ML early, he's quite a high profile players. ML's strategy is to hoard supplies and also to get rich in the early stage and solve the problems in the later stage with money (if possible). His way of playing is different from MC, more fun and cunning and interacts with other players instead of MC's solo play XD. Laters, the two of them team up and with MC's survivalist knowledge and ML's savvy ways, they're practically unbeatable. XD Winning first place, meeting in real life and working for the game company. HE.

Don't expect too much romance, but MC & ML also has their moments, mostly ML complaining that MC only contacts him about the game (lol) or being happy that MC is depending more on him ^^ The survival games itself are interesting plus the number of ways it can be solved, although MC's strategy is less exciting but I like how...steady it is. ML is in charge of the exciting part XD
