Apocalypse Breaker

Aaron Renfroe, Sean Oswald

S86/100
The System has consumed a thousand worlds. Dean Williams just became its worst mistake. When an otherworldly agent force-activates Dean's magic, he's drafted into the System's machine — a cosmic engine that converts survivors into adventurers and grinds them toward endless violent conquest. But Dean's Activation unlocked something the System didn't account for: power that exceeds its parameters, knowledge of its secrets, and a target on his back from the intelligence running the apocalypse. While other adventurers chase quests and rewards, Dean is building something bigger — a team, a base, and a plan to break the System from the inside out.

Runeblade: A Delving & Skill Merging LitRPG

Bacon Macleod

S86/100
Kaius just wanted to unlock his class — instead, he restarted the apocalypse. After years of training, Kaius has barely acquired the first two of his family's legacy skills: powerful, vanishingly rare abilities whose method of creation is a secret people would kill for. Narrowly surviving a bandit ambush, he gets trapped in the Great Depths — a world-spanning dungeon. To escape, he must slay one of the Guardians defending the exits, a feat no classless fighter has ever survived. If that weren't bad enough, succeeding will reignite a forgotten trial that nearly ended civilization.

Saving the school would have been easier as a cafeteria worker

CluelessRR

S86/100
Cal was awoken in a new world years ago, and his second life has not been a smooth one. Now he's been called upon to complete a covert military assistance mission — except that means being marooned at the heart of the enemy, saddled with a fake identity and a fake family, attending a hybrid magical college-highschool for nobles. Balancing the demands of student life while secretly investigating a plot that could doom the Academy and the city around it is a tall order. Failing a class or two doesn't seem so important when demons might burn everything down. Not everyone agrees with him on that.

Leo's first order of business when he is dropped unceremoniously into the Pokémon world is to survive. Seeing as he is in the middle of the wild with only a small pocketknife, some papers, and a backpack — and with no signs of civilization in sight — that is setting up to be quite the task.

Now he's trapped in the human world along with his arch nemesis, the beautiful and capable Maharet Flameheart. Life isn't easy for a demon in a small town — but at least the parks are hellhound-friendly and the werewolf at the local bookshop seems nice enough. Bael and Maharet must find a loving human family to take in this powerful young witch before time runs out, or risk being stuck on Earth forever.

ARMOR

Seersucker

Created as the ultimate dungeon trap — a living suit of armor that devours any adventurer who dons it — the narrator was built for its master's entertainment, leading adventurers to ruin and betraying them at the last moment. This time was supposed to be no different. Instead, it finds itself living the life of an adventurer, hoping its companions won't realize it's not who — or what — they think it is.

Actus

S85/100
Lives are a currency, and Noah Vines is rich. Reincarnated into the body of a poisoned magic school professor, Noah is given more than just a second chance at life — every time he dies, his body reforms. With infinite variations of runic magic to discover and with death as a painful soul wound rather than a final end, Noah finally has a chance to wander the lands of the living once again. And this time, he plans to get strong enough to make sure he never has to wait around in the afterlife again.

Earthen Contenders

Jonathan Brooks

S85/100
Against his will, Thaden was transported along with millions of other humans from Earth to train as Contenders in a new world. Something went wrong during his transfer — he was ejected from the training program and sent into the open mouth of an active volcano. Through a miraculous and horrifying series of events, Thaden survived, only to find himself alone in a dungeon with no clothes, no weapons, and a Support-based Healer class with no offensive capabilities whatsoever. None of his spells do damage; he can't even pick up a weapon. But Thaden quickly discovers something unique about himself that might just allow him to survive — because he seemingly will never run out of Mana.

Courting Death

Blue Moon 13

A84/100
Martin Zheng has always held dying hands and listened for the hush that comes after the final heartbeat. It's his gift, his burden — until the night he gives his own life to shove a child away from speeding headlights and awakens in Death's embrace. She is Thanara: silver-haired, star-eyed, lonelier than the long darkness she guides. For one stolen moment, two caretakers share a tenderness deeper than fear. Then the cosmos declares his death "an error" and hurls him back to existence. Reborn as Mingxuan in the Elemental Realm — where sword-saints carve mountains and power is measured in the lives you can end — Martin remembers only fragments: a scent of rain-drenched lilacs, a pulse in his chest, a promise to meet Death again. While rival sects chase immortality, he walks the forbidden Dao of Death, mastering the grace of endings so he can stand beside the woman no one dares to love.

Systema Delenda Est

InadvisablyCompelled

A84/100
When the System came to Earth, technology failed, monsters appeared, and billions died as humans were inducted into game-like physics. Unfortunately for the System, not all humans were on Earth. Cato is an ordinary postbiological citizen — disgusted enough by the System's excesses to go through one of the portals and spread himself into the broader System just as Earth is completely freed. He has no magic, but he has the technology and knowledge of a civilization reaching toward the second rank of the Kardashev scale. He may have to operate under the System's limitations, but he certainly doesn't have to play by its rules. His goal is simple: remove the System entirely.

Dungeon Crawler Carl Book 6: The Ghosts of Earth

DoctorHepa

A84/100
The apocalypse will be televised. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth collapses into a heap, transformed into a dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot that circles the entire globe. Only a few dare venture inside — and once you're in, you can't get out. Each level has a time limit. But this game isn't about strength or dexterity; it's about followers, views, and clout. Building an audience and killing those goblins with style. You can't just survive here. You gotta survive big. And if you have that 'it' factor, you may just find yourself with a following — and the loot boxes dropped by generous benefactors watching from across the galaxy.

Dungeon Devotee

Nixia

A84/100
Through all of Linaria, no dungeon holds such a grip on the dreams of men as the Eternal Depths. Hundreds throw themselves against its trials each day. Dozens survive, walking away with power and wealth beyond their wildest dreams — until they go back for more. One way or another, they all eventually feed the Depths. Edmund Montgomery Ahab has sworn to destroy it. Underleveled, undertrained, and underprepared, Edmund steps into the maw of the world's greatest predator with a sword in his hand and vengeance on his mind. With every level he earns, every piece of loot that drops, every secret he uncovers, and especially every bit of power he can squeeze from his mysterious connection to the Aspect of Madness, Edmund crawls closer to accomplishing that insurmountable feat. With nothing else to lose, Edmund has already given the Depths his life. All that remains to be seen is whether he takes the dungeon's right back.

REND

Temple

A83/100
Erind Hartwell is a dutiful daughter, law student, film enthusiast — and psychopath. She's relatively normal, even in a world where superhumans battle eldritch horrors that transform people into monsters. Viewing life as a movie, she has always wanted to be the main character. That wish is granted unexpectedly: on the brink of death, impaled by a spike, an otherworldly entity offers her powers. Becoming a monster isn't exactly the heroic origin she imagined — but she didn't have much choice, and she can probably make it work. Follow an endearing psychopath through the chaos of a battle between superhumans, hi-tech government agents, monsters, mutants, and wannabe heroes for Earth and the future of humanity.
