Village Manager

Andrew Karevik

D28/100
One fatal collision while rushing for the bus and the protagonist is standing before a goddess, his short life of gaming and sleeping deemed not worth much. In lieu of moving on to the afterlife, a wager is struck: prove that all those hours spent in simulation and management games were worthwhile by taking charge of a desolate, Level 1 village and making it thrive. Fail or die, and it's back to the grocery store. But that's not going to happen. There's just the small matter of figuring out where to start — and why the mayor won't wake up.

For the first time he has a chance. With a peculiar Soulkin at his side, Adam must train, grow, and evolve — both beast and master — or be left behind in a world that demands strength. Something stirs beyond the horizon, and the boy with the smallest World might be the only one not bound by fate.

Craft the Planet

Kos

D28/100
In a broken 1930s New York where magic hides behind skyscrapers and monsters lurk in the shadows, thirteen-year-old Oliver Evans has nothing but a sharp mind, a starving stomach, and an impossible new power: the ability to Analyze anything. A bloodstain teaches him chemistry. A loaf of bread reveals magical cooking. A mysterious book hints at bags larger on the inside, living shadows, and a hidden world of guilds buried beneath the city he thought he knew. But magic has rules. Guilds hoard power. Monsters roam unseen. And orphan boys from Manhattan aren't supposed to change the world. Armed with curiosity, stubborn optimism, and an ever-growing collection of bizarre crafting skills, Oliver begins clawing his way upward one invention at a time — cooking magical meals, building impossible items, uncovering ancient systems hidden beneath Earth itself, and gathering allies ranging from eccentric craftsmen to dangerous outcasts marked by society.

The Duke's Reborn Daughter Sometimes Chooses Violence.

TheLastSurvivor

Esra Veyne. Most only know her as the 'White Ghost', a Duke's Daughter who never leaves her room — a girl fated to die in obscurity, if only someone hadn't reincarnated into her body. The new Esra has no interest in being a ghost. She wants to enjoy her new life. There's just one problem: everywhere she looks, she finds something that needs fixing, and she can't just let someone else handle it. Even if it means breaking fingers to get answers, using a traumatized girl as an assassin, or never getting to enjoy being a Duke's daughter in the first place. Hopefully, she won't have to solve every problem with violence. This Esra Veyne was never very good at staying in her room.

And instead of finally getting his peace, he is reincarnated in another world in the body of a penniless orphan, surrounded by the most exhausting people he has ever met.

I Tricked a God

Mortykay

D26/100
Born with a soul mutation desired even by the Gods — perfect memory — Kael could recall every word, every book, yet not a single drop of mana. Mockery, beatings, a ruined family, and a desperate deal with the God of Knowledge and Madness condemned him to centuries of slavery in the endless Divine Library. Seven hundred years of torment turned him into a vessel of knowledge. Then hatred — and the stolen Canon of Primordial Void — gave him a chance. Kael escaped back into his fifteen-year-old body, months before tragedy struck. Now he carries not only memory, but the knowledge of countless worlds. His goals: protect his family, hide from the gaze of the Gods, walk the path of power once denied to him — and take revenge against the God who enslaved him.

Cantrip Mage

Aest Belequa

D26/100
Magic has rules. Eola must break them. Eola loves magic, but her unusual attunement fills her soul with unattuned Mana — useful only for the basic runes children learn. Cantrips won't help her pass her first year of school or save her parents, but Eola refuses to believe she's stuck forever. She just needs a less conventional education. The academy's library holds tomes no living mage has read, with monsters stalking its aisles and forgotten knowledge haunting its shelves. If a solution exists, it will be archived there — and to master magic, Eola must first learn, then break, its accepted rules.
