What do you have when you blend a pinch of litrpg, a touch of farming simulator, a sprinkle of epic fantasy, a whole cup of Isekai, and a dash of Home Alone?
You have Arnold’s life.
Accidentally murdered by a cleric in another universe during a botched resurrection, Arnold, a semi-pro gamer, wakes upon an altar to find himself incarnated into the overweight body of a farmer who could have been his fatter twin. He’s not the hero. He’s not the villain. He’s certainly not the chosen one who is there to save the world. He’s a clerical error.
It could be a bad joke, but apparently, it happens so often that they have a standard procedure for returning you. That standard procedure doesn't apply to Arnold.
Now stuck on a new earth, in a new universe, with no way home, Arnold must use his gaming skills to figure out how to level his farmer class to 100 and gain a second class which doesn't make him want to beat his head against the wall. There is just one small problem: farmers don't gain experience from killing monsters. Like at all.
Follow Arnold on his hilarious journey as he stubbornly comes to grips with his new reality and tries to change his destiny from that of your typical farmer.

This is a great reincarnated to an RPG fantasy world story where the main character (MC) has the farmer class foisted upon him. His goal, to reach level 100 hundred in the class so that he can take a 2nd class that feeds what he thinks a reincarnation should be. Only the system is stacked against him and he has to figure out every exploit to gain the XP he needs which spirals into some truly fun and funky adventures with an emphasis on a kind of trap filled farmer dungeon being used to lure in increasingly powerful monsters. Beyond the action, there’s good character development, town building, lots of RPG exploitation, and some good world building mid story that develops some series villains. The sense of humor, if it lands with you, will have you chuckling throughout.
Score: 8 out of 10
