Tunnel Rat: Causing Trouble in Two Worlds Review
Tunnel Rat: Causing Trouble in Two Worlds by The Walrus King is a strong example of LitRPG done right, with two distinct but well-developed settings: a crumbling dystopian future in the real world, and a vast, immersive fantasy game world called Genesis Engine. Both environments feel fully fleshed out, and the author does a good […]

Mother of Learning Review
Mother of Learning by Domagoj Kurmaić (nobody103) is a rare example of serial fantasy fiction that delivers both the promise of its high-concept premise and the depth of fully realised storytelling.

Super Supportive Review
Super Supportive by Sleyca is a carefully constructed, character-driven web serial that stands out among Royal Road’s superhero and sci-fi offerings for its subtlety and depth. While its premise initially appears straightforward, a teenager granted magical powers by an alien-administered “System” on Earth, the execution is far from formulaic. At its centre is Alden Thorn, […]
