Don't Die Dave

Don’t Die Dave A death game where the reward isn’t power or money... it’s health insurance. To erase his crippling medical debt, terminal Dave signs a contract that uploads his mind into RiftBorn™ — a brutal pay-to-win death game watched by millions. Broke, bald, and armed with nothing but discarded loot, blistering sarcasm, and an 8-bit penguin named Pepper, Dave is trapped in a world where every quest is sponsored, every death is monetized, and every mistake goes viral. To survive, he’ll have to outthink influencers, sabotage engagement metrics, and resist a healthcare system that profits if he dies. Play or die. Those are the rules. And for a social hermit like Dave, death isn’t the worst fate...it’s trending.
