Salvos

MelasDelta

A82/100
The life of an Infant Demon is a bloody grind to the top. For Salvos, a curious newborn Demon with a penchant for making friends, surviving the swarms of wild Demons in the Netherworld was always going to be a difficult task. She will adapt, gain experience, and evolve to survive this hellish landscape with the help of her sole companion. But when her companion's life is threatened by a mysterious Demon King, she'll have to separate from him and be tossed into an unfamiliar world of humans and monsters — where she is scorned for being born a Demon. The law of evolution is survival of the fittest, and no matter where she is, Salvos will survive.

First Contact

Ralts Bloodthorne

A82/100
Eight thousand years after the Glassing of Earth, Terran Descent Humanity has largely become a post-scarcity society based on consent and enjoying life. With the discovery of another ancient race beyond the "Great Gulf," events and history collide to draw the Terran Confederacy into war against a hundred-million-year-old empire that has always won — and believes it always will. With allies and enemies of multiple species, the Orion Galactic Arm Spur will be wracked by warfare the likes of which have not been seen. Cracked, harried, wounded, and damaged, Terran Descent Humanity willfully throws itself against the universe itself. Told largely from the viewpoint of other species, this is a vast ensemble war story spanning hundreds of perspectives across an entire interstellar conflict.

Swing Shift

William D. Arand

A81/100
Gus found a comfortable tedium working as a detective in the Paranormal Investigations Department — it gave him somewhere to hide what he truly is. He's a Boogieman: an apex predator that makes the whole paranormal world fear him, a species hunted on sight by governments and citizens alike. But a case is about to land on his desk that will kick over his carefully maintained non-life, whether he likes it or not.

Hyperion Evergrowing: A Monster Evolution LitRPG

Nilsimus

A81/100
Leif Vin is mortally wounded and left for dead at the conclusion of a devastating battle. As dawn breaks, opportunistic creatures stalk the aftermath of bloody conflict — and one such being, an entity of twisted and blighted wood, implants his dying body with the parasitic seed of a carnivorous plant. Identity shattered and levels lost, Leif is reborn as a sapling in a newly formed wilderness. When the primal need to reclaim his lost humanity uproots him, he embarks on an era-spanning journey that will change both him and the world forever. The story explores what it means to be forcibly altered against one's will, and the consequences of that change — alongside animal companions, kingdom building, heavy world-building, and a subplot about the origin of the system itself.

The Dark Ages

Ralts Bloodthorne

A81/100
After the Second Precursor War, the Cygnus Orion Galactic Spur never stopped fighting. As time passed, new races rose up and other races went extinct. One thing never changed: everyone wanted a slice of Terran technology or territory. The Dark Ages were upon them.

Valkyrie's Shadow

Aeridinae Lunaris

A80/100
In the wake of the Battle of Katze Plains, the banner of Ainz Ooal Gown flies proudly over the city of E-Rantel. The Sorcerous Kingdom has entered the world's stage to the clamour of death and devastation; the surrounding nations fearfully prepare even as they reel from its calamitous debut. When a destitute noble finds herself under the auspices of an unlikely benefactor, events are set into motion that will resound over the world for ages to come. Valkyrie's Shadow chronicles the lives of the natives whose reality has been turned upside down by the advent of beings of matchless power transmigrated from a game. It is the tale of a nation created by the whims of a supreme sovereign, and his unstoppable servants who each have their own, often twisted, interpretations of their Master's Will. A slow-build kingdom-builder with methodical storytelling and a focus on well-rounded character development.

A Lonely Dungeon

Cathfach

A80/100
When a new dungeon is born, it wants nothing more than to have the most vicious monsters, the most cunning traps, and the most shiny of loot. There is only one problem — it finished its first floor years ago, but it still hasn't been visited by any adventurers. In order to find someone to explore its floors, or perhaps just to find someone to talk to, this dungeon will have to go way off script. But it soon discovers that going off script brings problems of its own, and that adventurers are not the only thing this world is missing. A story about a dungeon's journey of exploration and self-discovery in a devastated world.

Myth//OS

Lost Rain

A80/100
Bastion: the last hope of civilization. Bright, flashy, and dangerous. Heroic Wardens protect the city from monsters, rifts, and villainous Anarchs, while corporations bicker like children even during the end-times. The existential threats seeking the city's destruction are just another Tuesday — the Wardens, with their system-granted powers forged from broken myths and shattered stars, are the only thing standing between Bastion and total devastation. They were just out of reach for one wayward Stray who happened to be in the right place at the right time. Now, with the OS having chosen them, it's time to claw back to the top — one rift, job, and monster at a time. Just as soon as there's enough drive to actually get out there. Picking up the pieces is just so tiring.

Emberscale Alchemist

Maikana

A80/100
Born into the underground civilization of Emberscale Caverns, Kori is not your average young Kobold. She would much rather ponder life and magic than wrestle or roughhouse with her many siblings. Learning early that if she wants to know something she has to ask questions — often repeatedly — her insatiable curiosity will shape the path she walks. Follow Kori's slow progression from a curious hatchling to a productive member of Clan Emberscale, as she gradually uncovers the various facets of the world's system and finds her path to becoming something her clan has never seen before: an alchemist.

Marrow

cerealman

A80/100
Marrow was old — older than anyone he knew. He had been sitting in a closet for many, many years, doing nothing but stare. But eating a spider opened up another world to him: a voice, speaking to him directly. Marrow didn't understand what the voice was saying, but that was secondary. Something stirred inside him — something like restlessness. This is a LitRPG story of a skeleton's coming of sapience, with skills, levels, heroes, and monsters.

Deadman

C.B. Titus, Seersucker

A80/100
Even after the bombs fell, even after countries unleashed weapons beyond imagination on one another, even after lawlessness became the norm — people still expect their mail. As a deadman, the narrator is uniquely suited to deliver it. Radiation does not bother him, and those who try to hurt him typically wind up dead. A Fallout-inspired apocalyptic story about a courier braving an irradiated wasteland, featuring a weird-west vibe, gunfights, radiation mutants, and a detailed progression system.

Kitty Cat Kill Sat

argusthecat

A79/100
Ownership of the last functioning piece of orbital infrastructure puts you in a position of responsibility. The fact that there's a lack of thumbs in the process makes it a challenge. But challenge is, as far as anyone can prove, my middle name.

PokeBun

RavensDagger

A79/100
A lost and terrified Buneary stumbles into the Ruins of Alph and, in his desperation, calls upon forces beyond his understanding. What appears is a girl he suspects might be human — though Broccoli Bunch has strange powers and the ears and heart of a gentle Lopunny. They join forces, determined to grow stronger in a world of strange Pokemon and stranger friends, where old mysteries need uncovering and new enemies need to be pounded into the dirt. Chaos Cuddles Cauliflower isn't going to end as just some ordinary Buneary — he's determined to get to the top, one hop, skip, and bounce at a time. The story is told entirely from the perspective of the people and Pokemon Broccoli meets, never from her own point of view.

Caspar Cartwright is a hapless hedge mage saved from the scaffold and sent back to the living with Irene's power at his fingertips and a mission branded into his heart: face the servants of the dead god, find the key, and open the gate to the Kingdom. A dark and unconventional romance between a mortal mage and something far older and stranger than humanity.

Fuggmann

A man given a new lease on life finds himself among Pokémon. From his memories of the franchise, he assumes this world runs on convenient fate, rule of cool, and cheesy friendship — just like any anime. Unfortunately for everyone else, he's one hundred percent right.

An HFY Tale: Drop Pod Green

Guardbro's Field Desk

A79/100
Coming off humanity's first multi-planet war, the Inner Dolcir Coalition barely survived — thanks in large part to Earth. Rhidi, a Kafya and member of the dominant IDC race, served in a specialized force during the war's final phase. With the war over and her mother pressing her toward marriage and children, Rhidi signs up for a joint military training program: a statement to the Humans that IDC members are their equals. The program turns out to be far more than Rhidi bargained for — not only in challenge, but in the freedom she has always craved.
