12 Miles Below

Mark Arrows

S87/100
The world is in ruins. Extreme sub-zero temperatures suffocate the surface, making even simple survival an ordeal. The only escape from the deadly climate is underground — but that brings its own disasters: monstrous machines lurking in the depths, land that shifts like contraption more than rock, and only demigods powerful enough to travel deeper. When an expedition into the far uncharted north goes terribly wrong, Keith Winterscar and his father are trapped together in a desperate fight for survival. Stumbling upon an ancient war of titanic scale, the two must set aside their differences while they struggle against gods, legends, and the grand secrets of the realm that lies below.

Guild Mage

David Niemitz

S87/100
Liv Brodbeck is too small, too fragile, and—according to everyone—a burden on her mother from the day she was born. A bastard child in a castle kitchen with no prospects. But when she accidentally unleashes a surge of wild magic, she takes her first step on a journey that will lead her from the kitchens of Castle Whitehill, to the cold palaces of the Eld, and beyond—to the graves of gods.

The Land of Broken Roads

Ryan English

S87/100
The age of Man has come and gone. His bright and glorious works are ruins, his heritage scattered and forgotten. Vicious things now walk his empty halls and hunt his empty streets. Men are few in number and huddled far away on the last weary stretches of land that have not cast them out. For a boy like Dirt, there is no food but what he can scavenge and no shelter but what he can dig. If he wants to survive, he must find allies in even the most unlikely places — because in a world the wilds have reclaimed, there is no mercy from hungry jaws. An adventure story about friendship, courage, and the unrelenting savagery of nature, following a boy with a mysterious, forgotten past who must quickly learn to contend with the supernatural to survive.

Tunnel Rat

Walrus King

S87/100
Milo lives in a steel cave within a man-made mountain of concrete. He spends his days repairing machinery and tinkering with the prosthetics that help his twisted body navigate the small tunnels that are his world—as much a piece of discarded machinery as the equipment he maintains. An escaped lab experiment living in a hole. Given a chance at being someone different, Milo may become a hero. But there are secrets buried in the ground: ancient mysteries left by races that delved deep and stayed below. Maybe only a tunnel rat can discover them.

We Hunt Monsters

Aaron Oster

S87/100
Keith has died twelve times. After making a deal with a mysterious immortal, he was sent to a new world in hopes of gaining a better life for his family — but the deal had no expiration date, no matter how many times he died. After his dozenth death, Keith renegotiates: he is sent to the world of Raiah, filled with monsters and a system of magic similar to the fantasy roleplaying games his brother used to enjoy. Completing a quest to hunt the most dangerous monsters on the planet is the price he must pay to reclaim his old life. All of his experiences from previous lives translate to Skills — which is fortunate, because if Keith fails this time, the price will be far steeper.

1% Lifesteal

Robert Blaise

S87/100
Freddy Stern, a twenty-one-year-old cashier, has lived a plain, albeit harsh life. Having been orphaned twice, he's spent the last ten years working and staying out of trouble. His only aspiration is to save enough money to become an archhuman. His dream gets the jump on him when he barely survives a near-death encounter and finds himself with 1% Lifesteal — a bizarre talent with numerous contradictions and just as many uses. With every dead enemy, he becomes a bit stronger, a little wiser, and a lot more ruthless. And no matter how much damage he takes, he can always put himself back together. Physically, at least. But on his path to power, after having to look at the rotting guts of archhuman society again and again, can his talent keep his mind and soul as pristine as his body? Or will that part of him simply remain broken?

A Hunter who honored the Code all his life was promised a new life after death — a new world and some well-deserved rest. Something went wrong. Once again, he must fight.

Comedian0 L

Ludger was supposed to be just another forgotten soul, reborn into a quiet life.

Marked by the system as a prodigy, Ludger finds himself with access to every Job, every Class, and every Master's path. He refuses to let his second life waste away like his first. From kitchen tricks to forbidden magic, every choice reshapes not only his future but the balance of power around him — and what begins as a child's daily grind slowly transforms into the legend of a boy who refuses to follow anyone's script but his own.

The Iron Teeth: A Goblin's Tale

ClearMadness

S86/100
A new, darker age is dawning. The greed of kings has ignited a seemingly endless war. As men fight, the monsters of the untamed wilds devour the frontier — villages abandoned, fields gone fallow, murderous bandits roaming the desolation. None of that matters to a nameless goblin slave. He just wants to eat as much food as he can shove into his mouth when no one is looking. But fate runs a twisted course, and instead he is whisked away to the far-off Iron Teeth Mountains. To stay alive, he will have to evolve into something more than a simple goblin and carve a bloody path through the forests of the North — if he can first get over his crippling fear of trees, and survive in a place where everything considers him the perfect size for a quick snack.

Bacon Macleod

Kaius just wanted to unlock his class — instead, he restarted the apocalypse.

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.
