Fall Guy (Video Game Elementary #3) OUT NOW!

February 19, 2023 by Scott Leave a Comment

The Mid-Season Update has arrived, and there are a few minor bugs to stomp out. Literally! As school Custodian, the monster-hunting work falls to Connor. But after stumbling on a rare “Epic” Quest, the new Sabertooth fiends are the least of his problems …

ALERT! AN ADMINISTRATOR IS SUPPORTING THIS POWER!

Dr. Abigail Karsus, VP-P, VP-D, is no ordinary principal. Her eyes are sharp. Her laughter is wicked. And monster bones clink when she walks, thanks to her ghastly Bone Armor.

Connor’s fourth-grade class is appalled. Is this VGL’s newest Administrator or the Hidden Boss of a Graveyard stage?

Dr. Karsus insists she’s just filling in. But a lot can go wrong in a short visit, as Connor and his friends soon find out. When a horde of Undead fiends storms the school, a shocking Quest Trigger asks an ominous question:

How do you defeat an Administrator?

Featuring:

  • Mana Pools! Fast Travel!
  • One Cantankerous Wisp
  • THE SPORTS GLITCH
  • New “Epic” Loot and Abilities.
  • Zombies. So. Many. Zombies.

Don’t miss out. The legend of Connor Lamb is heating up!

Impostor Mode - Video Game Elementary Book 2

It’s field trip day at VGL, and Connor’s class is blasting off into space! Connor should be excited. But after a pair of Corrupted fiends delay takeoff, he gets a worrying ping:

ALERT! CORRUPTION DETECTED!

There is danger aboard the Aeronautica. One of Connor’s crewmates is a spy for the evil Ginevra. But which crewmate? In his new role as Custodian, it falls to Connor to investigate.

Is it their goofy, UFO-loving pilot, Ms. Veen?

Is it Neema, whose virtual pet is a (probably) man-eating plant?

Or is it Garon, the smirking transfer student who hates Connor’s guts? (It had better not be Garon. His avatar is a little OP…)

As the evil scheme slowly uncoils, Connor and his best friends, Glitch and Lisa, find themselves at the center of a ship-wide conspiracy. Will they solve the mystery in time? Or will the impostor lurking among them squelch their protests for good?

Featuring:

  • Life-sized Virtual Pets
  • Hilarious Quest Logs
  • SPACE BATTLES
  • All new Items, Loot and Abilities
  • Monsters. So. Many. Monsters.

Don’t miss out. The legend of Connor Lamb is only beginning!

Video Game Elementary — OUT NOW!

January 6, 2022 by Scott Leave a Comment

Rare loot drops? Monsters in the hallways? An after-school swords team?

Welcome to Video Game Elementary: it’s online school, leveled up! New in 2022, this epic, easy-to-read chapter book series reads like your favorite cartoon come to life. Perfect for Minecraft fans, or anyone who’s ever dreamed about “leveling up” during recess or after-school sports.

Connor can’t wait for Swords Team practice. He has a new Wolf Buster Sword to try out. That’s a C-Rank Melee Weapon. It took ages to grind!

But when his virtual classroom malfunctions, Connor finds himself re-living the same boring school day again and again. Worse, no one else seems to notice the difference!

What’s going on? Will Connor ever make it to Swords Team? Or will he be trapped in his fourth-grade classroom forever?

AN EPIC ADVENTURE AWAITS

Something is rotten at Video Game Elementary. Join Connor as he embarks on a daring, not-really-teacher-approved trip across the suddenly treacherous VGL campus, which might just be under attack …

The world of Video Game Elementary includes:

+ Characters who gain levels, loot and abilities
+ A gaming-style Quest Log
+ Crafting and battle systems
+ A wide range of monsters to hunt (called fiends)
