Description
Bigshot Scientist Gong VS Money-Loving, Optimistic Shou Tong Yu transmigrated into a new body in the interstellar era, becoming a crazy person who enjoyed mentally abusing his husband. This s*umbag’s reputation was destined to lead to abandonment, so to build up some good karma, the first thing Tong Yu did after transmigrating was to tell his husband he agreed to dissolve their spiritual contract and divorce. After deciding to divorce and needing to earn some quick cash, Tong Yu discovered that interstellar people were surprisingly obsessed with horror—the scarier, the better!

My Thoughts on Running Escape Rooms in the Interstellar Era
Alright, let's dive into "Running Escape Rooms in the Interstellar Era." The premise alone grabbed my attention: a protagonist bringing the thrill of escape rooms to a futuristic, interstellar setting. It sounded like a wild ride, and in some ways, it definitely was.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked by the novelty of the concept. The idea of blending escape room puzzles with a sci-fi backdrop felt fresh. I was eager to see how the author would integrate the protagonist's skills and knowledge from his past life into this new world. The early chapters did a good job of setting the stage and introducing the core premise.
What Works Well
The core strength of this novel lies in its creative escape room scenarios. The author clearly put a lot of thought into designing intricate puzzles and challenges that fit the futuristic setting. The sheer variety of escape rooms kept me engaged for a good portion of the story. I also appreciated the protagonist's entrepreneurial spirit and his dedication to bringing unique entertainment to the masses, even if his methods were a bit… eccentric. The "black fan" dynamic, where the protagonist is both loved and "hated" for his intense horror-themed rooms, added an interesting layer of conflict and humor.
Areas of Concern
However, as I progressed, some cracks started to appear. The romantic subplot felt underdeveloped. The male lead seemed more like a background character than a true partner, and I was left wanting more meaningful interactions between them. The protagonist's characterization also became a point of frustration for me. While his luck and "protagonist aura" propelled him forward, I felt he lacked depth and a genuine desire to understand the world around him. His reliance on "paleo earth" knowledge felt a bit too convenient, and his smugness sometimes grated on my nerves. The repetitive nature of the plot, with the protagonist constantly opening new escape rooms and dealing with similar challenges, eventually led to a sense of boredom.

Final Verdict
"Running Escape Rooms in the Interstellar Era" is a mixed bag. While the creative escape room concepts and the initial novelty of the premise are engaging, the underdeveloped romance, repetitive plot, and somewhat frustrating protagonist ultimately detract from the overall experience. It's an enjoyable read if you're looking for lighthearted entertainment and don't mind overlooking some flaws, but it falls short of being a truly great novel.
