An Unborn Hero

Cathfach

A76/100
The tale of a reincarnated magical girl lover, excited about finally living out her dreams of slaying evil with the powers of love and friendship. Unfortunately, a truck-wielding goddess interpreted her request to return her memories immediately after reincarnation rather too literally — meaning it'll be a long time before the frilly dress fits, and the demons don't seem to want to wait. Also in contention: the embryo of a hero facing the egg of a demon lord in a battle with serious mobility issues on both sides. And two new parents growing progressively more confused at the weird happenings around them. An absurdist LitRPG comedy in which an unborn hero speedruns the plot so efficiently it may all be over before she gets around to being born.

Horizon of War

Hanne

A76/100

Caught in the midst of this chaos is Lansius, an office worker and veteran MMO player who has been transformed into a medieval peasant. With no wealth, no status, and no magical abilities, armed only with his foundational knowledge of the art of war, Lansius must endure and thrive in a realistic medieval fantasy realm. Follow him as he moves from one occupation to another — surviving turbulent times and slowly ascending from common foot soldier toward the ruling class.

A New Home

Sean Oswald

A76/100
Coming of age is hard enough without monsters — but when your family ends up stranded in a magical world, you don't have much choice. Jackson's class as an Ironwood Monk puts him on the front line: he grows stronger the more he gets hit and can pass that on to his team, if he can get his mom to actually let him fight. Set in the world of Eloria, with character sheets, stats, spell descriptions, and loot — but not a game. Jackson must navigate dangers in both dungeons and the halls of power if he is to find a new home for his family.

PlumBlossom0_0

A76/100

As he embarks on this new life, he gradually becomes aware that this realm revolves around a select few "protagonists" who endure underestimation and humiliation, only to rise and retaliate following the predictable patterns of clichéd cultivation novels.

He uses his sharp intellect and vast knowledge to ascend to the pinnacle of the cultivation world, defying conventions and outsmartting adversaries along the way.

Noah Brown has a gift for fighting, but punching things never paid the bills — until he died and an Eldritch god found his soul. The strange encounter transports him to a new world, where he is summoned by bloody cultists with nothing but the shirt on his back and a mysterious item in his System menu marked [???]: a source of infinite potential.

Naruto: The Outsider's Resolve

FictionOnlyReader

A76/100
A normal person reincarnated into the Narutoverse faces a world full of red-eyed clans, a child jailor of the most dangerous being in existence, a snake creep with serious boundary issues, and an entire civilization of super soldiers with licenses to kill — none of whom particularly like him. Starting out weak and struggling for every gain, the protagonist must work his way up through gritty, often bloody conflicts in a world painted in a much darker light than expected. The story follows a zoomed-in perspective on the protagonist's gradual growth, from individual combat to large-scale battles, with an expanded take on the chakra power system.

Cultivation is Creation

Kynan

A76/100
Ke Yin has a problem — several, actually. He's really Kane from Earth, stuck in a cultivation world where people don't just split mountains with a sword strike but build entire universes inside their souls. He has a system with a snarky spiritual assistant that lets him possess the recently deceased across dimensions. And the elders at the Azure Peak Sect are asking why his soul realm contains both demonic cultivation and holy arts. Must be a natural talent. Kane's main cultivation method is plant-based, tied to World Trees, and will eventually allow him to create his own lifeforms within his soul realm. A weak-to-strong story spanning multiple realms, with light LitRPG elements and time loop threads woven throughout.

Judicator Jane

Brian Rouleau

A76/100
Jane's life was a string of bad luck — unpaid bills, dead-end jobs. When she wakes up in a vast, deadly desert with a glowing system menu in front of her face, she dumps all 630 of her available stat points into Luck. In a system where 10 is the maximum, the laws of probability bend to her will. But godlike luck has a downside. When a devastating one-in-a-trillion accident eliminates the realm's greatest evil, the terrifying Demon Horde assumes Jane is their new all-powerful queen. Now she must lead a legion of monsters through a game-like System she barely understands, all while hiding the fact that she has no idea what she is doing.

Dreamer's Throne

WildCard

A76/100
When Garrett comes to after a close brush with death, he's in a new world — missing an arm and paralyzed from the waist down. The brutal gang lord whose floor he's crashing on wants him gone, and only a plucky young woman and his own wits stand between him and a cold death in the streets. Armed with a system that grants experience for exploring this new world, Garrett is determined to survive by any means necessary — even if it means becoming a villain. But the city is far from what it seems. Terrifying creatures lurk around every corner, immune to conventional weapons, and a strange lucid Dream world keeps bleeding into reality. When it does, Garrett realizes the hostile gangs around him are the least of his worries.

My Big Goblin Space Program

ScottWarren

A76/100
Engineer, double amputee, and now astronaut for NuEarth LLC — Chris is about to complete his life-long dream of being the first man to moonwalk on prosthetics. At least until his rocket explodes on launch. Instead of death, he finds himself in a new world and a new body: three feet tall, covered in blue fur, and with the ability to command the absolute loyalty of any goblin he meets. The one familiar element to this new planet is that it's got a moon — a big one, with forests and seas. Chris sees no reason why death and reincarnation should get in the way of his goal. Armed with an expanding army of fanatical followers and a dubious self-propagating Goblin Tech Tree, he'll stop at nothing to jump-start the Apollo program. But he was brought to this world for a reason, and not everyone is content to leave the goblin king to his own devices.

After countless subjective centuries on the job, an odd God arrives with a unique request — destroy a world, minimum payment several million dollars on completion. Quasi sees no reason to refuse.

Department of Otherworld Rescue

ScottWarren

Barely getting his squad to safety with the aid of the Department of Otherworld Rescue, Cole joins as an elite operative: venturing into dying, desperate worlds to retrieve stolen children and teens. These worlds run on strange rules enforced by vindictive gods and omniscient systems, filled with monsters, demons, and worse. But playing in their sandbox lets Cole and his team share in their rewards — rewards that could elevate even an ordinary soldier into a one-man army.

Discount Dan

Shadow Alley Press

A75/100
All Dan wants is to find a way home. He'd settle for a beer, a bite to eat, and a place to sleep off his hangover.

No one ever gets out. If Dan wants to survive the week, he'll need to harness the strange game-like magic of the Backrooms, make some very sketchy allies, and carve out a little safe haven to call his own. He's also being hunted. The Flayed Monarch of the 999th floor has marked him for death, and no one walks away from the Skinless Court with their hide intact.
