You know what's worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what's worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all survivors for a sadistic intergalactic game show. Join Coast Guard vet Carl and Princess Donut as they try to survive the end of the world — or just get to the next level — in a video game-like, trap-filled fantasy dungeon that is actually the set of a reality television show with countless viewers across the galaxy. Exploding goblins. Magical potions. Deadly, drug-dealing llamas. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertained is not.

Reidon Ward will become a god — he just doesn't know it yet. Born weak, sickly, and small, afflicted with a painful disease and abandoned by his parents, Reidon has fought for every minor advantage life has allowed him. When the most powerful artificial intelligence in human history takes an interest in him, things begin to change. Granted a CAD — a Combat Assistance Device — with awful specs but infinite potential, Reidon finds himself at the bottom of his class at the Galens Institute, one of the top military academies in the Collective. Alongside his best friend Viviana Arada, Reidon must climb the school rankings and push into the combat tournament circuits that have become humanity's greatest entertainment. So begins the rise of a god. So begins the ascent of the Stormweaver.

On just another normal Monday, the world changed. The universe reached a threshold humanity didn't even know existed, and it was time to finally be integrated into the vast multiverse — a place where power is the only thing anyone can truly rely on. Jake, a seemingly average office worker, finds himself thrust into a tutorial filled with dangers and opportunities. In a world that should breed fear and concern, an environment that makes his fellow coworkers falter, Jake instead finds himself thriving. Perhaps Jake was born for this kind of world.

Jason wakes up in a mysterious world of magic and monsters. He'll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, and monsters — and that's just the first day. He's going to need courage, wit, and some magic powers of his own. But first, he's going to need pants. Follow Jason as he makes a place for himself in a world that is strange, yet sometimes strangely familiar. He'll meet crime lords and aristocrats, gods and monsters on his path from would-be victim to heroic adventurer. At least, he tries to be heroic. It's hard to be good when all your powers are evil.

A divine spat leaves French medic Viv stranded in the middle of an arcane disaster zone crawling with undead horrors in the world of Nyil — a place of magic, monsters, and petty gods. Thankfully, strange allies can be found, including a mysterious interface that helps humans survive in this merciless world. Viv will have to progress fast to survive the calamity and find civilization. She will also need a bit of luck — unless, of course, she becomes the calamity herself.

E-rank hunter Jinwoo Sung has no money, no talent, and no prospects—and apparently no luck, either. When he enters a hidden double dungeon one fateful day, he's abandoned by his party and left to die at the hands of horrific monsters. But just before the last, fatal blow: PING! [Congratulations on becoming a Player.]

Reivyn carries a secret: memories of a past life, and an unparalleled ability to acquire stats and skills. He led a quiet village life until the Count's men came conscripting — throwing child soldiers against an incoming orc horde before they had even unlocked a class. To survive the slaughter, let alone thrive, Reivyn will need to be extraordinary.

A 16th-century German knight is pulled from everything he knows into a world of magic, gods, and monsters. Leon Jäger lives by a simple code — repay kindness generously, and slights with total destruction — and he intends to keep living by it, even in a place where none of the rules make sense. To survive, he must master Qi cultivation while concealing his abilities from those who would exploit them, navigating a world where Eastern mysticism and Western chivalry collide.

Nathaniel's bus ride was supposed to be just another boring commute. Instead, he, 23 fellow passengers, and a corgi named Biscuit find themselves trapped in a "Hell Difficulty" tutorial, battling monsters and leveling up to survive. Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulty have their challenges—but Hell is where you have to be a little out of your mind. With a terrifying talent for mana manipulation, Nathaniel invests every stat point into mana. Attribute imbalance be damned: it will either kill him before the monsters can, or turn him into one of the most powerful beings in the system.

Zac was alone in the middle of the forest when the world changed. The whole planet was introduced to the multiverse by an unfeeling System — a universe where an endless number of races and civilizations fight for power and dominion. Stuck in the wilderness surrounded by deadly beasts, demons, and worse, Zac must find the means to survive and grow stronger. With only a hatchet for a weapon, he'll have to seek out his family before the world collapses — or die trying.

Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to claim ownership of this newly habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek — he mostly kept to himself, a weird guy with a cabin who occasionally came into town for a drink. After System Integration, that didn't change much; he only got stronger. Until one day he goes against his better judgment and decides to lend help on a mission that doesn't seem too hard. He should have stuck to being alone.

Felix's life on Earth was a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and tiny apartments. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward — yet when given the chance to walk away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from Earth and thrust into a magical world known only as The Continent. Empowered by a System, he learns he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication. Levels, stats, and magic await — but death is the start of a terrible fate, and no one knows what he will become if he lives.

At eight years old, Weldin died in a Nexus Rift far above his level — but that was not quite the end. A soul from Earth slipped into his empty body, bringing a wealth of knowledge and an unexpected ability to unlock additional Affinities. Now he must survive a Rift where everything can kill him with a single mistake, navigate a world where powerful figures want to possess him for his unique Affinities, and somehow get through an Academy full of eight-year-olds who have just discovered they have incredible magical powers — all while building the most comprehensive Affinity collection he can.

Zane was driving home when thousands of dungeons suddenly spawned across Earth, covering every inch of the planet. He wakes up to a wrecked car, a broken leg, and a goblin trying to kill him. While others cower and hide, Zane finds he genuinely enjoys this brutal new world. He unlocks a rare Berserker skill — the more damage he takes, the stronger he gets — and sets out to conquer everything the system apocalypse has to offer.

Orodan was an orphaned street rat who clawed his way to the county militia through hard work. When calamitous events unfold and draw him into something far bigger than himself, his battle-loving disposition leads to a warrior's death — only for him to wake up again on the same day. In a world of skills, titles, and blessings, a smart time-looper might scheme, plan, and amass equipment and allies. But not Orodan. If there's one thing he's good at, it's stubbornly trying the same thing over and over via brute force until it's done. If a wall is in front of him, going around is not an option. Instead: batter it thousands of times until either the wall breaks or he does — and gain skill levels along the way.

Ex-combat medic Erik West and his best friend, Marine recon sniper Jimmy "Rugrat" Rodriguez, have been thrown into another world—branded as the "cursed." Now they must figure out a fantasy world where cultivation, skills, and abilities must be grown or death awaits. In a world where personal strength is everything, Erik and Rugrat have to start from the bottom. But they've cut their teeth in conflicts across Earth, and the ten realms may not be ready for them.

By a stroke of fate, a stone gains sentience and sets out on a grand quest to touch grass. Unfortunately, the system forgot to change its stats from metric values to the appropriate Str/Int/Dex values. Things escalate. Fast. Features cultivation, jade beauties, and numbers going up — ridiculously up, all of them — courtesy of arguably the most balanced protagonist of all time.

Across the world of Aster Fall, there are unique classes that cannot be trained through normal means — they require quests and accomplishments that simply don't exist yet. Some say the World Law itself is broken. Sam Hastern's family has been cursed by one of these classes for fifty years: the Battlefield Reclaimer, a class no one has ever managed to level, condemning them to poverty in a barren village. Then a dungeon exploration leaves Sam looking distinctly non-human. In a world of mana crystals, beast cores, spirit veins, and elemental storms, Sam must master rare and evolving classes and confront the forces threatening to break Aster Fall apart.

Dying at a young age after a disappointing life, Mat thought he hit the jackpot when he reincarnated on a tropical island — a world where exploring mysterious lands and learning magic are a tangible reality. But the world of Elydes is as wild and savage as it is beautiful and magical. The Guide might offer opportunities for power to all, but humans aren't impartial. Mat has the lowest possible starting point, and those in his circumstances rarely go far. Not content to let his humble rebirth define him, he must find the determination to grow stronger and delve into the mysteries of Elydes.

Jack Rust was a nearly-finished PhD biologist when an extraterrestrial AI called the System invaded Earth, flooding it with aliens, magic, and violence. Jack hoped to at least gain some magic. He didn't. Instead the System dropped a forest dungeon and a goblin directly in front of him. Armed only with his fists, Jack must fight his way back to civilization. To his own surprise, he discovers that violence suits him. In this battle-ridden new world, Jack finds the life he always dreamed of — and he intends to thrive.
