My Thoughts on Favored by the Escape Game Boss
First Impressions
"Favored by the Escape Game Boss" immediately hooked me with its intriguing blend of fantasy, horror, and romance, seasoned with a dash of shounen ai. The premise is irresistible: a protagonist navigating dangerous escape game scenarios while dealing with amnesia and the attention of a possessive, handsome love interest. I was definitely ready for a wild ride! The tags, like "black belly," "clever protagonist," and "comedic undertone," painted a picture of a story that doesn't take itself too seriously, which is always a plus in my book.
What Works Well
The overarching plot, hinted at early on, is a major draw. I'm always a sucker for a good mystery, and the amnesia element adds a layer of intrigue that kept me invested. The scenarios themselves seem well-crafted, providing a thrilling backdrop for the character interactions. The comedic undertones were also a welcome addition, preventing the darker elements from becoming too overwhelming. I appreciated the promise of a caring, clever protagonist who can hold his own in these dangerous situations.

Areas of Concern
The ML's actions are definitely something to be wary of. I can see why some might find it difficult to root for a relationship built on such shaky foundations. A redemption arc would need to be handled very carefully to be convincing.
Final Verdict
"Favored by the Escape Game Boss" presents a fascinating, albeit potentially problematic, narrative. The blend of genres, the amnesia mystery, and the escape game scenarios create a compelling foundation. However, the questionable actions of the ML, Cha Gong, introduce a significant hurdle. Whether the story can overcome this hurdle and deliver a satisfying romance remains to be seen. Proceed with caution, but don't dismiss it entirely – there's definitely potential here if you enjoy morally grey characters and complex relationships.
