War Priest

Andrew Karevik

D29/100
Arik Dacre never thought he'd become the reincarnation of the War Priest, nor did he think he'd befriend an irritable water spirit or a mysterious master illusionist. But destiny can be funny like that. Drawing on recently translated ninja and samurai texts to build its combat and chi system, this Japanese mythology-inspired cultivation epic follows a chi healer forced to learn to use his power in new and frightening ways.

Minute Mage

Reg Rome

D28/100
Arlan is a young hero who gains the ability to travel back a short period of time, giving him a second chance to face any challenge. Sounds overpowered — but his ability is limited to a single use per day, and every time he levels up, he can go back a little further. Arlan may be growing more powerful, yet he has never been in more danger. Demon magic was never supposed to reach human hands, and its original owners will go to any lengths to take it back.

Summoned A Hundred Years Too Late

Hippo_

D28/100
After 3,841 days of logins, Alexandra was the only player left in her game.

She opened a support ticket and begged the devs to save her streak. That's when the gods took her instead, and reset her streak to zero. When Alexandra arrives in a world of real magic, her former guildmates are already there — and have been for a century. They have empires and a hundred-year head start. Her old friends don't want another player in their game. One day. One quest. One reward. Alexandra has her streak, and she will burn the world before she misses a daily.

The Dao of Reincarnation: Ascending Through a Hundred Lives

RighteousEgg

D28/100
Su Chen died — and that was when the real cheat code finally activated. A mysterious ancient tome called the Reverse Fate Scripture latched onto his soul. Every time he dies, it tallies his previous life's feats, failures, and audacity, then awards Reverse Fate Points to spend on perfect-grade talent, heaven-defying comprehension, god-tier bloodlines, and more — anything to rewrite the script of the next existence. He has been the arrogant trash young master, the iron-blooded general, the emperor killed by family, the unrivaled senior brother, a demonic cultivator, and a devouring Nether Raven. Lifetime after lifetime of failure, betrayal, glory, and catastrophic falls — every death just feeds the next run. Now, armed with memories from countless lives and a terrifying mountain of hoarded points, he opens his eyes once more. From worm to apex predator, from mortal speck to standing above the heavens — this time, he's engineering the single most broken starting build imaginable.

Simon Archer

If Jerry can discover his uncle's greatest secret, he might just be able to level up enough to save the farm.

Village Manager

Andrew Karevik

D27/100
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.

The God of Death Just Wants to Quit?!

Fallen Pages

All he wants now is to escape the endless cycle of reincarnation and enjoy one peaceful last life. But just when freedom seemed within reach, he finds himself in the midst of a divine battle royale for a newborn world. Can the nascent god of death find peace and tranquility in immortality, or will his new domain, servants, and ever-troublesome mortals make his life impossible?

Time Cursed Knight

GCLopes

D27/100
In 2097, humanity discovered Mana. Arcane academies, spelltech cities, enchanted weaponry — magic became ordinary. But that blessing tore open portals across the globe, and the beings who stepped through were not refugees. They were invaders. They took everything. Now all that remains of humanity is a sliver of land clinging to the edge of a shattered continent. Every death drags the protagonist back to the beginning of the day. Every loop forces him to train harder, learn faster, and outthink a world designed to erase him. Some call this power a gift. To him, it's a curse — but curses can be shaped into weapons.

Building World Peace (And Democracy) with My Bloodthirsty Demon Army

Bimbanana

D27/100
Welcome to planet Talvaris — your generic isekai world filled with magic, dragons, and voluptuous female elves, if you ignore the slavery and racism in the corner. The goddess Celes maintains this picturesque realm by fueling her divine power on the prayers of Talvarians near death, which is why the occasional demon invasion is a necessary feature of the world, and why an OP otherworlder hero is always on hand to keep things from going too far. This time the celestial HR department makes a mistake. Alex Solomon is not a teenager, not handsome, and definitely not Japanese — just a regular pot-bellied millennial who spends most of his time staring at screens. Totally not goddess-standard. So she curses him into an orc body and banishes him to the Demon Kingdom with nothing but access to Earth's internet. Armed with memes, Wikipedia articles, and misquoted great thinkers, Alex and his United Demon Kingdom set out on the most disruptive revenge possible: building world peace, freedom, and democracy across Talvaris.

Valterion: The Space/Arch? Mage

phn11x

D26/100
Magic is real, and thousands of years ago it made interstellar travel possible. Now Earth is only a distant memory, lost to envy and greed when not everyone could be a Mage. Advances in technology leveled the playing field — and sparked conflicts still burning today across system-spanning nations, some Mage-friendly, some not. Sara is the long-lost daughter of two of the most powerful Mages in existence. Follow her as she discovers her powers, makes friends, accidentally acquires a super-powerful AI, and finds a way out of the Mage-hating nation she grew up in. Her journey takes her across the galaxy as she uncovers her origins — navigating a universe where Space Mages are essential for travel between systems, and where being one in the wrong place can be very dangerous.

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.
