How to Survive as a Maid in a Horror Game (Comic) Vol. 1

When a player gets pulled into a deadly horror game and becomes the maid to the reincarnation of the devil, she only has one goal—survive!

In the highly anticipated horror game The Murderer of Pfaltzgraff Manor, players control the character Adrian—a handsome young man who happens to be the reincarnation of the devil—with the goal to kill as many people as possible to satisfy Lilith's Curse. However, fans are tearing it to shreds because it's way too hard to beat. One night, after drunkenly attempting to rack up that digital kill count, a player falls asleep and wakes up in the world of the game—but as Hilda, one of Adrian's maids. And Hilda is a convenient source of human flesh for Adrian's murder quest. Where's the "escape" button when you really need it?!

Can Hilda outwit and outlast the literal devil, or will this review-bombed horror game become her grave?
