This is the Trial by Conquest - a battle-royale, civilisation, build-off. Lose and you die. Win and you rule over the fantasy world of Isolation as king! Maximus Rum would rather not die. In fact, right now what he'd most rather is find his pants and figure out what the hell is going on. The beach he woke up on is empty and quiet.
But he'd better get a move on.
The Trial has already begun.
A village-building, dungeoncrawling, RTS LitRPG - taking inspiration from games such as HoMM, Civilization, ANNO, TotalWar, Warcraft, and others.
May contain: Violence, combat, fights, etc. Sexual humour, references, descriptions, and debatably non-explicit acts. Moral ambiguity and occasional sophistication. Nuts.

Dungeons & Divebars: Staying Alive
Every city has one: some hole in the wall that refuses to die, kept on life support by a few crusty locals. The kind of place tourists avoid like the plague, probably because they're convinced they'll actually contract the plague, simply by walking through the front door. Cheap beer, watered down drinks and, for some inexplicable reason, the world's most amazing chicken wings. A dive bar. The decades roll on, neighborhoods rise and fall, populations ebb and flow, but the dive bar abides. The dive bar also has a secret. Were someone to pay close enough attention, they might just notice that the dive bar only seems to attract a certain kind of person. And every so often, that person doesn't come back out. Within the dive bar's weathered walls, order and chaos are in residence, kept in a state of constant tension by the few who deign to enter. Divers. As the Earth continues to turn and people go about their busy days, they do so ignorant of the war that has raged on for centuries, just down the street. A war for control of the world around them. A war for their very souls. Dungeons and Divebars is a collection of novellas exploring the depths of the seediest dive bars in existence... and the horrors that lie within. It's progression fantasy, litrpg, urban fantasy, and classic dungeon diving tales all rolled into one. And the stakes could not possibly be higher. So sidle on up to the bar, give Bob your order, and settle in for one hell of a night.Complete

The After Effects
After it all happened, the Plague created what feels like a whole new world. Survivors created new lives for themselves and carried on with their lives. Me? I didn't get the chance to create a new life. Thanks to my absolutely wonderful father figure, I was forced to become an entirely different person. Thankfully I was able to escape his peachy influence and take some control of my new life. What I don't know is the Plague brought on after effects. Everything changed eleven years ago and only a few knew what actually happened after billions of people died. That all changes one-day though and I found my life completely flipped upside down. Cheers to The After Effects.Complete
Gamer of the Dead
Zombie Apocalypse meets the Gamer. to make it a bit different, I decided to create a new kind of zombie with its own rules. hopefully, the zombie will become more dangerous and open up new possibilities. So basically, this is a story of an underdog guy surviving the zombie apocalypse... and the unrequited love of the woman he loves. I am not a native speaker of the English language, it's actually my second. Grammar might be a problem. I accept every comment and review provided that they are constructive. I've been told that my genre is actually called LitRPG. Without further ado, ENJOY!Complete
The Horned King: A Kingdom of Ash
Death was supposed to be the end. For Crowley, it was just the beginning. Given a second chance in a brutal new world teeming with monsters, Crowley is granted the power of a Necromancer a class he never chose and a curse he must learn to control. To survive, he must raise the dead, command spectral armies, and build a safe haven for the living. But in a world governed by a mysterious System, true power is not found in a legion of undead, but in the answer to a single, impossible question: What is the value of a soul? If he can't find the answer, he'll lose more than just his second life, he'll lose himself to the very darkness that gives him strength.![Frozen Bonds [Superhero Romance with Spice and LitRPG elements]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/402688865-256-k64095.jpg)
Frozen Bonds [Superhero Romance with Spice and LitRPG elements]
Theo Reyes is just trying to finish his shift when Thorn Crawlers swarm one of Nexus City's industrial districts. One minute he's working on his latest Rift-resistant building designs, the next he's trapped on the fortieth floor with elevators offline and creatures flooding through the ventilation systems. Then Sergeant Mira Kane crashes through his office windows in a shower of glass and kinetic energy, all business and barriers until her extraction mission goes sideways. Turns out the monsters aren't even their biggest problem-there's something in the air, courtesy of the invading creatures, and it's doing things to Mira's meta-human physiology that she can't just power through. And that's when things get complicated. Because Theo's not meta. He's just a civilian architect who happens to be really good at designing buildings that don't collapse when dimensional rifts try to tear them apart. But when protective instinct meets desperate need and exposed Rift Scars start amplifying everything? Suddenly his touch has Mira looking at him like he just became the most important person in her world. In Nexus City, only 0.1% of humanity has powers. The System grants levels, stats, and a personal inner HUD that won't shut up. Defeats can lead to growth through... unconventional means. And the corruption? It runs way deeper than either of them realized. Temperature play powers. Institutional betrayal. Survival in maintenance tunnels. And an awakening that nobody saw coming. What to expect: Visceral meta-human action. LitRPG mechanics (Stats, Levels, XP, skill trees, the works). Plot with spice, not just a string of gratuitous encounters. Consent-focused intimate content that serves character development. Corruption subplot because of course Parallax Guard has problems. Environmental survival and creature threats. Content warning: Sexual content (18+), graphic violence, adult language. This is a consent-forward LitRPG romance with mature themes.
Into the Madness
The world we knew is no more. It's all started with a strange illness spread through sporadic means, incredibly virulent and deadlier than anything human's recorded history could remember. People exposed to those spore turned into living corpses in less than a minute, instinctively preying over the healthy ones with unsatiable hunger. Quickly overwhelmed by the situation, world governments lost control of the majority of their national territories. Whether by pragmatism or pure selfishness, millions of individuals were abandoned by those who swore to protect them. Authoritarian governments were established to protect the new elites and those useful to their cause. Fortune settlements were built all around the world by those who were abandonned, fighting for the meager resources left behind. Mysterious organizations rose in prominence, aiming to become the leader of this new world order. Amidst of this madness, a man going by the name of Aether unlocked the military system, a mysterious technology capable of changing the fate of the entire world.
