The Nth Awakening

MonkeySleepsWell

D34/100
Eighty percent of D-Grades are dead within five years — and Marcus just tested F. Heir apparent to a military dynasty of a thousand years, groomed since childhood to be their saviour in mech combat and politics, his future collapses in a single verdict. Stripped of his name and family, classified as expendable, he is thrown into the Federation's lowest ranks with one purpose: stand on the front line and bleed long enough for the real soldiers to finish the job. He has no cultivation advantages, no hidden master, no system-granted blessings — only a half-functional interface that shouldn't exist, and a body the machine refused to classify. In a galaxy where power flows to those who obey the system, Marcus is about to discover what happens when you break every rule.

The Dragon of Dreams

Commander843

D34/100
A young man is reincarnated as a dragon with a near-insatiable curiosity. Initially driven by questions about his own reincarnation, he becomes lost in the endless world of magic — using his deep understanding of advanced sciences to learn the laws and properties of a new type of energy known as mana, then using mana to expand his understanding of science in return. Though strength was never his goal, his intelligence, expanding curiosity, and the circumstances of his existence propel him up the mountain of power as though it were a small hill — until he climbs to a point where he seems to be the peak itself. Even if that was never the case.

Worthy Core

DaScoot

D34/100
Xenia Worthy, Reincarnator Extraordinaire, has done it all. She's been a Hero (twice), a Demon Lord (briefly), and most recently did a stint as a magical talking sword. But it turns out there's at least one more type of life for her to live: the life of a sapient Dungeon Core. She's more than experienced with death, but no fan of it, so with the help of her latest SGA-assigned Guide, Guy, it's time for her to see if she can make life as a stone her best life yet. In this new world, Dungeons exist to prove to mortals and gods alike who is worthy of power and who is weak. Many will challenge and some will fall, but none will remain unchanged.

Isekai'd As A Lord Of The Manor

Kuzunalis

D34/100
William died chasing a promotion. He woke up as Alden, eldest son of a Baron in a medieval world where monsters descend from the north every winter — and everyone relies on a powerful Duke's fortress city for shelter. Until now: for the first time in living memory, the Duke is charging an exorbitant fee to enter, and Alden's dirt-poor village can't pay. A former London engineer, Alden carries modern knowledge into a world of parchment and swords. With elves, dwarves, and orcs as fellow survivors rather than enemies, and fate pushing responsibility onto him far too soon, he must do what has never been done before: transform an overlooked frontier village into something that can endure the impossible winter. If the world won't save them, he will.

Broken Class: A SPY LitRPG

Tory Riter

D34/100
Arthur was a top-tier spy, right up until he broke the first rule of espionage: never uncover a secret that will get you killed. Now he is dead — or rather, reborn in a brutal system-driven world obsessed with voluntary slavery. Armed with sarcasm, spy training, and a system-gifted wildly overpowered skill set, Arthur does what he does best: ruin everyone's evil plans, one corrupt tyrant at a time. If they cannot find him, they cannot stop him.

When the same day begins repeating itself over and over, Tal is the only one aware of the resets. Stuck in a remote forest town with a perpetual hangover and no allies who remember yesterday, he must unravel the mystery alone.

Argus

D34/100
Working overnight tech support, James Lyle discovers a stairwell in his office building that contains not stairs but a seemingly infinite landscape of supernatural cubicles. Unwilling to stay away, James and his trusted friends begin exploring this endless maze — where a few real-world minutes become eight hours of encounters with strange creatures and stranger interior design. In a realm that lets them level up in fax machine repair and pay the rent with dungeon loot, the adversaries are quickly becoming dangerous. And whatever James is uncovering in the office dungeon may not stop at the entrance.

Transformation

Valery Starsky

D33/100
The familiar world collapsed overnight. As the Transformation progressed, disasters struck throughout the Earth — materials changed their properties, new species of flora and fauna appeared, and an alien Game converted our world into a vast dungeon, replacing the previous civilization. However, the alien plans for Earth began to go awry from the very beginning. An ordinary young man stole the bonus for the first gaming action, depriving the invaders of their perk. Now he must navigate a world of fire-breathing creatures, dark elves, money-grubbing dwarves, and powerful dragons — while deciding which aliens to trust, which to fight, and whether to dare rebel against all-powerful invaders.

JustInTime

Burt Wrenlaw

D33/100
Justin Thyme is not a good man, nor one destined for glory. He was meant to die in obscurity — just another level 82 Templar about to be chewed up by a horde of monstrosities clawing at humanity's last enclave. One short conversation with a time-splitting eldritch horror later, and he finds himself flung five years into the past, right when Earth was first chosen to host the 9,947th Gladiatorial Games. Justin must help save the world from crumbling under the twin pressures of monsters and murderers. But standing out too much risks drawing the attention of the other eldritch horrors watching Earth's struggles for sport. It's all about making the right connections, sowing hope, and exploiting the System with his borrowed ability to tweak time.

After one too many failed inventions, Julian hits rock bottom — and then gets summoned to another world where gods and monsters roam.

Now he has to figure out how to make the Godcore and his phone work together to help the people who summoned him survive their upcoming annihilation by the mad God of Chains. Julian has a plan: he's going to build a factory in a medieval world.

Respawn Condition: Trash Mob

D.M. Rhodes (Razzmatazz)

D33/100
Every time it dies, it respawns as the weakest monster on the lowest floor of the dungeon. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of lives — every one remembered, every death felt. But unlike the other monsters trapped in the endless slaughter beneath an unbeatable hero party, this nameless soul keeps its memories. And with memory comes something dangerous: the will to escape. After countless reincarnations, it finds something no monster was ever meant to see — a hidden passage leading upward. To reach it, the soul must climb from the bottom up, mastering new bodies, exploiting glitches in the dungeon's rules, and outsmarting heroes who have never lost. Something in the dungeon wants it to stay. Something in the darkness is watching. The longer it climbs, the more it begins to question what the dungeon truly is — and what it is becoming.

Between dodging electric bee swarms and taking advice from a tinfoil-hat guru, the two head back home — wherever that is in this System-shattered world.
