Shadow rank ~#1521 in Psychological↓50

The world is corrupted by miasma, and a strange fog covers the sky.  Blood still splattered everywhere from killing her first mutant zombie, Zan Xinyi becomes the unwilling host to her very own system: The #1 Gacha Game System.  It doesn’t care that the world has ended.  It doesn’t care that the potential playerbase has largely begun to thirst for blood and flesh above shiny new character banners. There’s no stat boosts. No easy points. The system is a game development system, and it’s bent on its own goal without a single care for the current circumstances-- Zan Xinyi must develop the number 1 gacha game in the world, or die as she misses her deadlines.  And there’s one more thing it didn’t tell her...her own, gacha gifted powers are based on the first character she ever created for the game, the Witch. While everyone else hunts zombie cores, she relies on a broom running on sparkle power! With the amount of instruction she's given, she spends more time hitting things with the broom than ever casting spells. Still, it's not enough. Because it’s not enough for Zan Xinyi to fight her way through the zombie horde. It’s not enough to scavenge the ruins of a newly bygone era. In a crumbling world, she’s got to recruit, reconnect, and keep enough of civilization alive so that they can do the one thing she needs above all else: They need to play her game. The reviews are in. "Darkly hilarious." "A fun, gritty apocalypse." "A mix of whimsy and dry humour!" Updates Wed/Sat What to Expect -No Romance (The female lead will slowly recruit members of her game studio over time. Think One Piece, except she's looking for game studio members instead of pirates.) -Base-building and Faction-building -Slice of Life elements, a tightly knit cast of characters -Gacha Game Design! -A System without Stats
