I ADORED How to Defeat a Demon King by Andrew Rowe when I read it. It was the first book that got me really into reading.

I spent a while wondering what about it was it that I liked so much. After pondering for a while, I came up with the fact that the main Character, Yui Shaw, didn’t just go along with the stupid rules. Not like she just broke them, but she bent them, going by the letter of the law. Also calling out the stupidness.

For example, >!she used the Hero of Shadows (sorry if thats not what he’s called I need to reread it) to take the hero sword out of the stone, because she’s not the Hero and all.!<

Anyway, even if it’s not a LitRPG and just a fantasy, I need another of this kind of book.

Here’s what I remember: There was 3 main areas. A castle place thing, another I think was a horse stabke of some sort, and a witch swamp which is the only main area that cost real money. It was a non-progressive side scroll dollhouse game like toca Boca.

The castle area had a dungeon with a creature of some sort that had a crack in the wall nearby with a bat you could pull out, and a spider you could pull around but it would stay connected by it’s string.

There was like a tavern area with glasses you could mix and match with different fruit drinks and mix colors to create different colors of drinks or whatever.

To the left of the tavern was a Mine, you could send a minecart in and get a random piece of an ogre fossil and put them together in a carving in the wall nearby to create ogres. You could create as many as you wanted I never found a cap.

To the left of the mine area was a dragon’s horde of gold, it could breath fire when you moved around it’s neck. The dragon was red. Even to the left of that was a tower, it had gardening stuff inside it and you could grow flowers in the pots.

Thats about all I remember. I do think it possibly had the word Monster in it but maybe not.
