Andy in the Apocalypse

PlumParrot

A81/100
Andy wanted a quiet life — just his trailer, the Sonoran desert, and a job that didn't ask much of him. Instead, he got a front-row seat to Tucson's collapse. Magic rewrote the rules. Monsters stalked the streets. People mutated — or died. He didn't plan to be a hero. But when the screaming started, Andy grabbed a broken broomstick and did what he does best: survive. Now he has more than his own skin to worry about — kids looking to him for protection, neighbors turning to him for leadership, and a trailer park slowly transforming into a fortress. The System is leveling him up, but not fast enough. The countdown is ticking, the invasions are coming, and if Andy fails, everyone he has begun to care about will be slaughtered.

His rage overflows even beyond the grave, and he is granted life once more in a different era. All those his vengeance was focused on have long since vanished into obscurity. What does one who holds all the power in the world do, when every reason for that power has disappeared?

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.

Neon Dust

PlumParrot

A81/100
In 22nd-century New York, survival is a hustle and secrets refuse to stay buried. Tony, once a corporate operative, knows betrayal firsthand — abandoned by the elites who molded him, he's been exiled to the Blast, a low-income, no-exit wasteland in the heart of New Brooklyn. Now he scrapes by in a world of gang-controlled streets and Dust-fueled powers, finding reluctant allies among the outcasts he once scorned. Addie, a fiercely independent journalist, is determined to expose the district's corruption and the ruthless toll it takes on its people. But as she digs deeper, her quest for justice drags her into the city's darkest shadows — and into the grip of Dust. Together, Tony and Addie are an unlikely team in a world where loyalty is rare and survival comes at a price.

System Override (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners)

Daoist Mystery

A81/100
What do you get when you cross nanomachines controlled by a volatile AI with a bleeding-edge military-grade cybernetic implant and a gutter rat out to prove everyone wrong? A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden. His mother's death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction. So he does what any teenager with no more cares left to give does — chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology forced on him as a child. Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we're at it?

The Menocht Loop

caerulex

A81/100
Ian Dunai is trapped in the only maze an arch-decemancer can't escape: Time. Only 1% of the population is blessed with magic affinity at birth, and fewer still have affinities high enough to rule. Ian's decemancy eclipses all, granting him ultimate control over Death — he conquers cities with a thought and turns them to ruins with a gesture. But overwhelming power isn't enough to escape the time loop or reveal its purpose. When Ian discovers a critical clue he missed years ago, escape is finally within reach. Little does he know, it's only the first realm.

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.

Foxfire, Esq.

Noa (October)

A80/100
When people with superpowers emerged during the Cold War, world governments treated them like any other weapon: objects to covet, hoard, and control. Becoming one of these "Moonshots" was a curse — heralding conscription, incarceration, or worse. Years have passed since Naomi Ziegler's own conscription ended, years spent rebuilding her life and becoming the first ex-superhero lawyer in the country. But as long-buried troubles return and blur the lines between right and just, Naomi must make the choice she's long deferred: whether to hold onto the comfortable life she's built, or reach out for the justice she has long been denied.

Spiteful Healer

Hakurai

A80/100
Eli Winters was never interested in playing The Shattered World — thanks to his deadbeat father Makaroth, the game's number one player. But when his best friend convinces him to try it out, a heat-of-the-moment bet presents a chance for retribution: become more powerful than his dad, win the bet, and force him to delete his character. The problem: Eli is six months behind at level 1, with top players already past level 100. Through hard work and trial and error, he discovers a unique skill that massively boosts his experience gains — with one catch. He cannot deal any damage whatsoever. In a game where killing is the fastest way to level up, he'll need to get very creative.

The Demon Queen Wants To Live. [Yuri, Progression Fantasy]

TheLastSurvivor

A80/100
Lysanthia, the strongest Demon Queen, spent centuries trying to die — not because she wanted death, but because it was the only way to break her chains. Her reincarnation spell worked, mostly. She woke in a forest nearly a thousand years in the future, in a body not quite hers, stripped of her overwhelming power. A world without a System. Without Classes. Without the Gods watching her every step. Her reincarnation is complicated by the presence of Ash, the Hero who slew her. Thrust into a world almost completely alien yet somehow recognizable — where power is etched in Ink — she must start from nothing. And for the first time in eons, some people show her kindness for no reason at all. That might be harder than starting over.

Luri is dead again. But even this won't last forever.

Amelia Thornheart

Keene

A80/100
After years of fighting a terrible disease, Amelia finds herself transported into a mysterious world, right into the quarters of a demon captain. Free from her years of suffering, Amelia decides to face this new reality with optimism and cheerfulness. Strangely, she seems to have a new body, retaining all the abilities of her game character she spent years levelling — but wasn't that character a demonic combat mage? And who is this pretty blond woman she's become? Better not let the demons know of her titanic combat capabilities. Maybe her modest healing abilities could be provided as a service instead.

Thea has always dreamed of joining the United Human Federation marine corps, ever since she was saved by one of their soldiers as a child growing up in the Undercity of Lumiosia. Getting there from a mid-world means earning credits, and her years spent repairing arcade machines and mastering their simulators have given her a head start. On the eve of the monthly ladder reset, a brand-new challenge appears from nowhere — one that changes the course of her life forever. Set against a galaxy-wide war, the story follows how a unique System interacts with each faction in the conflict, with each side receiving a distinct system-trait that fundamentally changes how war is waged.

Father of Monstrosity

Dosei

A80/100
Jakob was only seven when he was summoned to Helmsgarten's sewers by the Fleshcrafter calling himself Grandfather. For seven painful years, Jakob studied the depraved craft of his monstrous mentor, before being let loose on the populace of the metropolis. With the vague task of creating the ultimate being to rival Grandfather's greatest creation, he is left with nothing but the flesh-stitched robes on his body and the loyal wight Heskel. Together, the pair explore a civilisation utterly alien to them, raised as they were in the dark and damp of the city's underbelly. Along his journey, Jakob constructs monsters and constructs, dodges the noose of the guards, joins the Adventurers' Guild in his voracious hunt for knowledge, and parleys with Demon Lords and Great Ones. Many who believe him a weak child suffer eternally for their arrogance. And in the end, even Grandfather must face the realisation that his creation is greater than he could ever have imagined.
