Billy's Review

As I embarked on my first journey into the LitRPG genre, I felt a hint of self-consciousness about diving into THE PRIMAL HUNTER: Vol. 1. At first glance, the cover gives off a vibe reminiscent of middle-grade literature, yet a deeper look reveals that it’s definitely not intended for younger audiences, with its frequent f-bombs and scenes of bloody violence.

The narrative itself is a commendable blend of fantasy elements, gaming mechanics, and anime-inspired images, crafting an overall adventure that is engaging. However, I did encounter several predictable and clichéd moments that, unfortunately, detracted from the story’s potential for greatness.

One aspect that truly stands out is the lively artwork by Senchiro, which adds a layer of vividness and depth to the experience.

Overall, I found THE PRIMAL HUNTER: Vol. 1 to be a worthwhile read. For anyone who enjoys GameLit, I would certainly recommend giving it a try. ╌★★★★✰
