The Crime Leveling System
READING AGE 4+

LAPD detective Victor Hale wakes up in a forest cabin surrounded by dead robbers, stolen cash, and a past he can barely remember.

CASE CLOSED.
+120 XP
Victor quickly learns the truth—every crime he solves makes him stronger.
Faster reflexes. Sharper instincts. Deadlier skills.
But the system doesn’t care about justice.
It only rewards results.
And Victor’s life is already a crime scene.
Planted inside the LAPD by a powerful crime boss, Victor is a double agent walking a razor’s edge between law and organized crime. When a deadly armored truck heist leaves his partner dead, the department orders him undercover to hunt the killers.
The deeper he digs, the more bodies appear.
The more cases he closes, the more powerful the system makes him.
And every level brings him closer to a truth someone has spent years trying to bury—
the murder of his father.
Now Victor must decide how far he’s willing to go.
Because in a city built on corruption, the line between detective and criminal is only one bad choice away.
And the system is always watching.
