Company of Strangers

Melissa McShane

F23/100
The wizard Sienne hopes to make a name for herself as a scrapper — someone who scours the ruins of the Empty Lands for treasure and lost magical artifacts. Catching her first break means joining a ragtag team: a desperate scrapper named Dianthe, her wizard-hating partner Alaric, a drunk priest named Perrin, and a young fighter named Kalanath. Finding the treasure is only the beginning. The companions must learn to trust one another, because their survival may depend on it.

Demonic City Builder

Cattacomb

F23/100
He filed 101 support tickets. The System turned him into a demon. Kairon is a system clerk who finally gets his own city charter. He does what any good bureaucrat would: reads the entire Terms of Service, finds a loophole, and exploits it. Unfortunately, doing so calls down a pillar of hellfire that roasts him, his villagers, and everything within a league. Now he's a demon with ten confused imps, a giant tower with a floating eyeball, and a rudimentary system that tears buildings through rends in reality — while a theocratic empire prepares to hunt him down.

Cursed Explorer of the Arcana

TypingTyphon

F23/100
A small seaside city, ordinary loving parents, and friends who turn every day into an adventure — a simple yet pleasant life. Elyssia isn't your usual unruly kid, but there's something more to her than even she remembers: the mark of fate. Most would consider being special a gift, but the world does not hand out boons without taking something in return. Less than a day is all it takes to lose her simple life and be entangled by the strings of fate like a powerless puppet. Now it's up to her to fight back using the same gift that brought this misfortune — the knowledge of a faraway world called Earth. Utilizing the Journey Guide, the System of the magical world of Aelion, she will climb to the top of the skies and dive to the bottom of its deepest wounds.

Ether Atlas - The Hidden Grid

Lucas Arden

F23/100
In 1974, a stranger handed Gary Gygax the rules of D&D. Fifty years later, the world found out why. The System is here. Millions are dead, ancient monuments hum with energy, and human biology has become a character sheet. Arthur Ashworth is a structural engineer who reads monsters like damaged buildings. Donna Callas is a security consultant who fights like she was trained for this. Steve Parr is an archaeologist who just realized his entire career was fieldwork for the apocalypse. Their guide is an alien construct with strong opinions about human architecture and absolutely no intention of telling them anything useful. They were a D&D party every Thursday. Now the dungeons are real, the monsters are real, the stats are real, and the ancient ruins they raid were built by something that has been watching humanity for thirty-five thousand years.

Runeforged: Path of the Paladin

M.S. Davidson

F23/100
Ben Crawford shouldn't be here. One moment he's on Earth; the next he wakes up in an inescapable room that seems intent on erasing him. Then, just as suddenly, he's somewhere else entirely — dropped onto a world where humanity is barely more than a myth. On Ark, power is everything, and Runebinding magic is the key to survival. Ben shouldn't be able to use it, but he can — and he's learning faster than anyone should. Fighting alongside monster hunters and wielding powers of Light, Ben quickly discovers that being an anomaly comes with a price. Some see his strength as an opportunity; others see it as a threat. As faction politics turn against him and ancient powers take notice, Ben must navigate a world that doesn't know what to do with him, all while something far more dangerous watches from beyond. Humanity was never meant to be part of this story — but to survive what's coming, Ben must forge a new path as the first Paladin in a world that needs one.

Rise Of The Worthy

CyberCinder

F23/100
Fifteen years ago, the apocalypse rained magical coins from the sky. Anyone who picked one up disappeared. Some never came back. Everyone who did was never the same. Shelby Thestalos never thought she'd become one of them. But when a molten corpse clutching a Class Coin throws her into the thick of it, she takes up the coin and joins the ranks of those who travel between Earth and the unnamed other world. With her newfound Gambler class and nothing else, Shelby will brave the dangers of the other world and come back stronger — no matter how much the system doesn't want her to.

Magic Breaker

Kernoel77

F23/100
The only thing Snow loves more than magic is taking it apart. When the Tower begins integrating Earth, humanity is granted inherent skills. Snow's [Suppression] can weaken anyone and anything, and combined with an anti-magic class and a near-limitless mana pool, it won't matter how strong, fast, or skilled an enemy is. Before the Tower fully integrates, Snow needs to find four specific people. After that, they will climb — all the way to the top. The arrogant gods watching from the Tower's peak need to be torn from their thrones, and Snow is ready to break them.

The Tears of Kas̆dael

Sidlunal

F23/100
It was just supposed to be a game. Instead, Jasper got his heart ripped out by a brooding goddess and awoke in another world — no weapons, no skills, naked — trapped in a place full of ancient horrors where gods and monsters still roam the earth. He's not ready to die. Good thing he's a mage. A high-fantasy story with light LitRPG elements, where the system is an important part of the story without dominating it.

Villainess of Tangled Tragedies

Pope Pug

F23/100
After a late-night drive ended her life, a woman wakes inside the first webnovel she ever mocked. In "Tower of the End," Celestia von Reingarde was nothing more than a petty villainess — a spoiled noble girl remembered only for bullying someone until the hero arrived. One humiliation, and she faded away so the harem could bloom. Except now she has become Celestia. She planned to slip quietly into the background and let the story run its course — until a system warning made that impossible: [Warning! Existence will be erased when Story Relevance reaches 0/100.] Obscurity means death. To survive, Celestia must become relevant.

The Apprentice of Ouroboros

Magius Swiftscale

F23/100
Hated by humans. Hunted by monsters. Neska will prove that strength comes from more than defeating foes. Neska Aksen knew early on she was different from other snakes — spending her days giving mice big hugs and reading her witch's tomes in a rustic potion shop. A test ritual unlocked her Interface, revealing that she had a prior life as a human, and the power of Classes and monsters. Her power is unprecedented, but the monsters who fear the Awakened soon learn of her and her witch, forcing her to flee toward Rivilat Academy of the Awakened. With little to go on but steadfast determination and powers from both halves of her soul, Neska must find allies and gather power to survive — and decide what direction her own soul pulls her toward: humanity, or those they're supposed to be fighting against.

Bob the Walking Bank - A Monster Evolution Lit-RPG

Absurdist Ape

F23/100
Investment Banker Robert Stadler was not a happy man — cheating wife, estranged family, soul-crushing work. During a drunken night grieving all of the above, he was given the opportunity of a lifetime via speeding box-truck. Non-refundable. The new start was not as a human being. Now an F-ranked monster — a Lesser Mimic — trapped in an alien dungeon and very much at the bottom of the food chain, Bob must survive a world where his species demands an ever-more-obscene amount of treasure to evolve. His solution: teach the locals how to make their money work for them. It's time to make way for the capitalist revolution.

Consumer of the Fourth Anchor

Miko Melina

F22/100
Sentience came quite suddenly to Suri the slime, leaving him with an insatiable hunger and a vague memory of pretty lights and lots of magic. The forest of his home is crawling with shambling, humanoid monsters possessed of an appetite for magic that would put even his to shame — a fact he's sure is completely unrelated to his arrival. With his first evolution — Guardian Slime — Suri is given his purpose. When he finds the local human village under siege, his path is clear: protect people, eat stuff. But threats lurk around every corner. Pestilent magic spreads the shamblers' curse. Harpies fight for their survival, and a dungeon sprawls beneath the land, poised to swallow unsuspecting slimes. Can a tiny slime make a difference and save the people he cares for?

The Heavenly Way

Golden Thame

F22/100
When thrown into a different world, the typical isekai protagonist gets some sort of a cheat. In Xiao Yun's case, all he got was crippled cultivation and a crumbling clan. If one thing sets him apart from the masses, it's his Earthly knowledge — and he is forced to put that knowledge to use to find a safe place for himself in this new and absurd reality. Featuring a smart, cunning protagonist navigating clan building and politics, the story deliberately subverts familiar cultivation tropes and gives clichéd characters and situations its own personal twist.

Death Game Quality Assurance

Andrew Rowe

F22/100
Working QA for a video game sounds like a dream—play games before anyone else, find bugs, file reports. The reality involves unpaid overtime, office politics, and the constant threat of layoffs. When a small third-party testing team is assigned to Blade Skill Online, a highly anticipated VR MMORPG, they discover that some bugs are more serious than others—and some truly insidious features are "working as intended." If they want to survive the launch cycle, they're going to have to break this game hard.

This Necromancer Raised Civilization Instead Of The Dead

Bimbanana

F22/100
In a world of magic and dragons, humanity's greatest hope is the Summoned Heroes. The Church of the Goddess, the only institution capable of performing the summoning ritual, made a catalogue — different tiers, different classes, different budgets. Because even the poor deserve their own personal hero. Unfortunately, one budget-conscious kingdom got Theo: a professional séance scammer and a necromancer who couldn't control the dead. So they threw him away. What no one knows is that Theo can summon the dead — but his System only lets him call souls from Earth. From Archimedes to Nikola Tesla, Julius Caesar to George Patton, Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs. Men who shaped civilizations, now answering to a scammer. A kingdom forged from Earth's greatest minds to devour other kingdoms — and perhaps even the Goddess herself. There is just one problem: right next door lies the Demon Kingdom, and it has been waiting.

Everyone has magic, and a fallen kingdom desperately needs someone willing to fight for what's right and build a grand civilization. With a not-quite-a-princess elf and a crippled dragon at his side, Leo must race to build his empire before the loan shark Kruegar can finish him off with a legion of orcs.
