Description
Mechas, spaceships, weapons, and equipment are all inseparable from energy. Energy has become the most scarce resource in the interstellar era in the future, and even those who have awakened abilities after stimulating special genes cannot do without the supplement of energy liquid. Lin Luo was originally just a small color blind miner. At best he has a good face. But a meteor shower and a bottle of genetic enhancement liquid completely changed his fate. Color blindness is not terrible, but the terrible thing is that this color blindness can see the color of the energy stone. Lin-StarCraft-No.1-Stone-Gambler-Luo: “Is it difficult to bet on stones?” Everyone: “…” It’s only not difficult for you, right?!

My Thoughts on The First Interstellar Energy Gambler
"The First Interstellar Energy Gambler" promised a unique blend of mecha, romance, and sci-fi, and while it delivered on some fronts, it left me wanting more in others. It's a light, easy read, perfect for when you want something that doesn't require too much brainpower. However, its fast pace and focus on a single element sometimes detract from its overall potential.
First Impressions
I was immediately drawn in by the interstellar setting with spiritual powers and beastmen elements. The initial premise of a colorblind protagonist navigating the high-stakes world of stone gambling was also intriguing. I anticipated a story filled with challenges and growth, both personal and romantic.
What Works Well
The core of the story, the stone gambling, is undeniably interesting. The author's detailed descriptions of jade types, energy stones, and the intricacies of the gambling process are fascinating. I found myself learning a lot about a subject I previously knew nothing about. The side characters are also well-written and add depth to the story. The concept of the MC and ML being each other's "lucky star" and "savior" is heartwarming, and the supportive relationship between them is a definite plus.
Areas of Concern
I felt the story was somewhat lacking in emotional depth and conflict. The romance, while cute, progressed quickly and without much exploration of the characters' inner thoughts. The MC's colorblindness, initially presented as a major obstacle, was resolved too early, and his animal form was often forgotten. I also felt that the story missed opportunities to explore the MC's past in the orphanage or to delve deeper into the political intrigue hinted at in later chapters. Ultimately, the over-reliance on stone gambling and the lack of significant challenges made the story feel a bit repetitive and bland at times.

Final Verdict
"The First Interstellar Energy Gambler" is a decent read if you enjoy OP characters, smooth sailing plots, and detailed descriptions of stone gambling. However, if you are looking for a complex plot, deep character development, or a passionate romance, you might be disappointed. I'd recommend it as a palate cleanser or a light read when you're in the mood for something simple and easy to digest.
