It is a good series and definitely has some unique traits but it has some major flaws as well as some small ones. First of all, the series is still releasing. The latest chapter to be released is 94 and Season 1 ends with Chapter 68. There is a huge difference between the beginning of the series and the ending. I can say that the creators are getting better and fixing their mistakes. One of the problems I have is the lack of interesting characters except for a very few. Most of the characters are very cliche bad guys with no motive whatsoever. This is why during the fights they only say stuff like "How dare you" "Don't underestimate me" or "Who are you." No motive during the fight, no interesting dialogue, no analyzing the opponent and so forth. Another problem is related to the power system. Most of the time, especially in the beginning, some skills and abilities are not explained at all. Or they are explained in 10 pages which is info dumping. However, this gets better towards the end. I also started to like the main character and I can definitely see he is developing. It is a good series and I would recommend it. BUT it is a bit overrated and there are better series than this.

What is it about: Cha Yeon-woo's twin brother mysteriously dies and Yeon-woo inherits his brother's memories about a tower and how he was betrayed. Yeon-woo decides to enter the tower (it allows you to be a god) and get revenge. It is a simple goal but it works. The story, so far, is interesting. There are a lot of similarities between the series as a whole and the main character between Solo Leveling and its main character Jin-woo. The tower and skill system is good, the abilities are unique and interesting, and the artstyle is phenomenal.
