A World Of Rotten Eggs (Eggman/The Boys SI)

Mahmoud Schahed

A76/100

I Built This City

ThePudding

A76/100
Ellen is a young adventurer with a unique problem: she duplicates every time she dies. And she dies a lot. All she wanted was to follow in her legendary grandfather's footsteps and become the greatest adventurer who ever lived. Instead she has to dodge government tax audits, endure unrelenting System notification spam, and wrangle a dungeon core bent on making her life as miserable as possible. But if she can just learn to work with herself — all of herself — it'll be fine. Probably.

Law of the Jungle

Vasily Mahanenko

A76/100
Might is right. This is the primal law of the jungle, and this creed not only rules the animal kingdom, but shapes the lives of men. Having harnessed the elusive Qi energy, humanity has divided the world into zones and mastered the creation of extraordinary artifacts, edging closer to immortality — yet this evolution has only entrenched the fundamental truth: power grants privilege. What chance does an ordinary youth from the neglected zero zone have in such a world? Is it his destiny to reach unimaginable heights, or to vanish into the abyss of mediocrity — just another forgotten face in a crowd of millions?

Atzi

Emmideer

A76/100
Atzi is the worst person to be stuck in a time loop. A lowly lizard thief living in a decrepit shack, she's easily distracted, talentless, and lonely — and would do anything for the easy life, except work hard. When she ends up in a time loop, it seems like the perfect chance to cheat her way into everything she's ever dreamed of. Too bad she must contend with selfish gods at war, mad mages casting apocalyptic spells, skeletons, demons, and a hole in the sky. The world is destroyed again and again — and all she really wants to know is why she's the one stuck in the loop.

Nanomachines

Nikolai Novikov

Little Devil

DocteurNS

Samael has lived her entire life in what most people would call Hell — because it is. Fire, brimstone, demons, pitchforks, and tortured souls, all the usual trappings. But Samael is oblivious to most of it, having spent her days in the deepest reaches of Tartarus as a wandering hermit alongside her devil father and the occasional visit from a naggy angel aunt. Meanwhile, Sophia lives a peaceful life as a young priestess on a sacred island, largely ignored by the world. When her day takes a turn for the absolute worst, an unexpected ally stumbles into her path and turns her peaceful existence completely upside down.

Dungeon Planet: The Healer Always Leaves Alive

six-perihelion

A76/100
When a world falls through the false vacuum of its native universe, it ends up in the Spiral — an endless twisting helix of planets, stars, and civilizations, where a thousand different fundamental rules mix and blend to form the patchwork cosmos of the Weave. In the Spiral, magic and technology co-exist, freely used by traders, adventurers, and plunderers to make their fortunes. Miles is a human refugee, fresh from an Earth that has recently fallen into the Spiral. Unlike most of his peers, he's chosen to pursue a specialization in magic, and has just taken his first step on a journey that will take him to the highest and lowest points in his strange new universe.

Department of Otherworld Rescue

ScottWarren

Barely getting his squad to safety with the aid of the Department of Otherworld Rescue, Cole joins as an elite operative: venturing into dying, desperate worlds to retrieve stolen children and teens. These worlds run on strange rules enforced by vindictive gods and omniscient systems, filled with monsters, demons, and worse. But playing in their sandbox lets Cole and his team share in their rewards — rewards that could elevate even an ordinary soldier into a one-man army.

Ends of Magic

Alexander Olson

A76/100
Nathan's life was defined by labs and lectures until an Archmage yanked him into Davrar with a tantalizing offer: master magic in exchange for Earth's scientific secrets. Nathan can't shake the feeling that darker truths lurk beneath the promise. Davrar is a dangerous world of dungeons and monsters, ruled by levels, Talents, and near-infinite progression. Nathan's unique ability to counteract magic gives him an unprecedented edge — making him a beacon of resistance against those who wield it as a weapon of control. Armed with intellect and an emerging power that could dismantle the very foundations of Davrar's society, he emerges not as a student of magic, but as its ultimate adversary: the Antimage.

Salvos

V.A. Lewis

A76/100
The Netherworld is a hellish landscape inhabited only by Demons, creatures born from the dark abyss — and it is the only world Salvos knows. Joining the ranks of newborn demons, she is thrown into a violent, anarchy-ruled landscape where she must learn, adapt, and evolve to survive. Her curiosity aids her but her pride could be her fall. It is the nature of the Netherworld to avoid or conquer any threat — after all, the law of evolution is survival of the fittest. Set in a game-like world with Classes, Levels, and monster evolution, Salvos is a story where the world is entirely real to those who inhabit it.
