Warlords of the Circle Sea

Ember Lane

D43/100
Connor O'Grady wakes up naked in long grass, reincarnated in a game world packed with monsters. A voice fills the sky and announces him as a Lord of the land — and then informs him that ninety-nine other Lords are out for his blood. Connor must build a civilization from scratch, form a team with other souls reincarnated from Earth, forge alliances with native elves, mountain men, and pixies, and tame dragons and wyverns. Monster battles, full-scale war, quests for hidden artefacts, magic, and crafting await — all while competing in a ruthless 100-Lord battle where there can be only one winner.

A New Player in the Force

USSExplorer

D42/100
A soldier wins an afterlife lottery and is given the chance to live again in another universe — the Star Wars galaxy — with access to lite-Gamer powers. Beginning almost four thousand years before the Prequels, the story follows an original character navigating a far-future iconic setting. The RPG system is present throughout but gradually pulls back as the character and world take center stage over the course of the long-running narrative.

The Ascendant: Endless Reincarnation

TheDreamForger

D42/100
My name is Richard Brooks. I died while saving a kid. Kicking the bucket at 28 was really depressing — there's so much I still wanted to do. But instead of passing on, I was thrust into an endless series of reincarnations. Whenever I die, I earn Karma points based on my achievements and growth. These points can be exchanged for weapons, spells, or other bonuses for my next life. Honestly, it feels like I'm stuck in an RPG. Sometimes all I can do is grit my teeth as I die an ignoble death. But I won't complain — even when it's dangerous and painful, I love life. With my unique power of Runecrafting, maybe I'll even become strong enough to overturn fate. It might take a few hundred lifetimes, but what's the rush? I have all the time in the world.

Rob Kiefer

Meet Jason — or is it Apple? No, definitely Pel. Reborn as a Celestial Fairy after a deadly traffic accident, Pel finds himself in a new world filled with an unknown mix of danger and wonder. He must come to terms with losing who he was while figuring out who he needs to be, struggling to survive against the monsters that want to eat him. Along the way, he learns about himself and his new family, finds new friends, and discovers the secrets of the world he now calls home. Thankfully, some Self Help is only an intangible, floating window away. How hard is being a healer, anyway?

Isekai Assassin

Grayson Sinclair

D42/100
Assassins don't retire, they reincarnate. After a lifetime of training to become a master assassin, betrayal leaves him bleeding out on the streets of London. Just before death, a god offers him a choice: die, or become a personal assassin in another world. He chooses the latter. But this new world operates by a completely different set of rules. He'll need to master its system of levels and skills fast — because his first contract is already waiting, and this world has no idea who it's up against.

Nobody's Hero

Noct

D42/100
There's one firm rule in Central City: everyone dies. Super strength, invulnerability, regeneration — everything is on the table, except immortality. After all, if anyone were immortal, Alpha, the completely-legitimately-elected dictator-for-life of Central City, could absorb their skill and become dictator forever. It's a good thing no one is immortal. Especially not Levi. A satirical dark superhero story with a LitRPG twist, drawing on the vibes of The Boys, Perfect Run, and Astro City.

After the Final Chapter

GoldSphere

D42/100
Daniel spent a decade writing a single fantasy novel — the saga of Artorias Grifantes, the legendary mage who sealed himself away with an immortal evil to save the world. He finished the final chapter. Then he died face-down on his keyboard. He wakes up in a crystal chamber a thousand years after his ending, inside his hero's body. His protagonist has become a religious figure, his allies legends, and his hero's baby sister is long dead — though her descendants remain, including a blind little girl who needs a hand. The elf he wrote into a doomed romance is still out there, waiting. Daniel inherits the greatest mind on the continent, but with it come memories and emotions he never expected. And the seeds he planted for a sequel are still out there, worse than anything his hero ever faced. Instead of writing it, he will have to live it.

J.D. Olson

D42/100
When the end of the world arrived, Elysia was already dead. Amid widespread destruction, collapsing cities, and dangerous creatures, strange lightning struck her grave. Rejuvenated by the violent shock, life returns to her broken body — and she must find a way to harness the element in her veins or die again. She was always a free spirit, and survival is just another challenge. But as she powers up, something constantly nags at her: maybe, just maybe, her family is still alive out there somewhere.

Diary of a Teenaged Mimic

Kenny Celican

D42/100
Tabitha Diaz fits in wherever she winds up — even when that wherever is another world entirely. "Wear the mask long enough and you become the mask" isn't scary for the mask. Tabitha is an overpowered shapeshifter who is far too much of a dumbass to realize how overpowered she is. Her story is a slice-of-life isekai heavy on relationships, found family, and polyamorous romance between two bi women and their tiger-woman companion — set against a non-heteronormative secondary world with occasional over-the-top threats when her family is endangered.

Brennan died once, worn down by a life that never mattered. He wakes in a world of shifting Zones where forests twist overnight and monsters claim the land, and he refuses to fade into the background again. His past is gone. This time, he is all in. A weak-to-strong isekai built around an expansive new world with its own cultures, nations, and political systems, rune magic, dungeon mechanics, and consistent progression.

The Saga of Keres

Lucian T. Einar

D41/100
1897. As the world teeters on the edge of war, Volundr — Ambassador of the Society of Nations — assembles a diverse group of individuals with extraordinary abilities. Among them: Steve, a devoted single father searching for his missing lover, and his mischievous daughter Alice. Others seek redemption, vengeance, or simply a place to belong. Cursed and desperate for answers, they agree to assist Volundr in exchange for his teachings on thaumaturgy and alchemy. Their first mission takes them to the Unseen City, under the threat of a devastating terrorist attack — where the most powerful thaumaturgist the world has ever seen has plans of her own. An alternate-historical fantasy set in the late 1890s, where magic clashes with science, kaiju roam the earth, and an unlikely band of heroes must confront forces both seen and unseen.

Fish Girl Evolution

Lunadea

D41/100
Shu wasn't always a fish. She wasn't even always Shu. After giving her life to save a child, she is rewarded — or perhaps cursed — with reincarnation into a world of cultivation and immortals. That doesn't go as planned, and she dies almost instantly, her soul absorbed by a mindless koi. Now she is stuck in the body of a koi, and her owner is the very man who cut her second life short. Her only saving grace is a System granted to help her navigate this new world — one that lets her both cultivate and evolve her way up the food chain.

The Phoenix

The Phoenix

D40/100
She entered the Tower seeking death. Instead, she keeps finding reasons to live. In this life she is Bella, a jaded med student trying to catch up on centuries of medical innovation — or at least she was, before the Tower appeared. With the promise that she would find whatever she sought at the top, she entered hoping to end her curse. But even with hundreds of lives of experience to draw on, reaching the top is no easy task. The Tower is filled with wonders she could only dream of, and what she once believed was the peak of power turns out to be only the first rung of a much larger climb. Her foundations are unshakable, but the Tower is deeper, deadlier, and more exhilarating than anything she has ever faced.

When the shattered fragments of the Black Moon collapsed onto Earth, they split continents, flooded them with raging oceans, and unleashed hostile energy that warped the laws of physics and created monstrous new life forms. The last remnants of humanity have no answer. So Project Stellar activates its final instruction: Incarnation. When there are not enough living fighters left to defend Earth, the dead will rejoin the ranks.

Path of the Hive Queen

Tejoka

D39/100
A girl wakes up alone in the wilderness, climbing out of an egg with no memory — only human knowledge that doesn't match her body. She must survive, decipher the blue boxes, understand her own biology, and build a hive from nothing. Her instincts as a Hive Queen push her to treat her progeny as expendable tools and to destroy any potential threat before it grows. Her human side resists. She'd rather not become an apocalypse — but she does need territory, resources, and perhaps a little conquest to keep her family safe.
