Solo Leveling: Arise is an action RPG based on the South Korean web novel of the same name.
About a decade ago, "gates" began to open and connect this world to different dimensions. "Awakened Beings" started to appear among ordinary citizens. These "Awakened Beings" are the only ones strong enough to fight the monsters in the dungeons beyond each gate. They are called "hunters." However, not all hunters are created equally. One E-Rank hunter they call "The Weakest Hunter of All Mankind" struggles to stay alive, even in the lowest-level dungeons. His name is Sung Jinwoo. With almost nothing to his name, he braves the dungeons to support his family and barely makes enough to get by. At least until he finds himself in a deadly "Double Dungeon," hidden inside a lowly D-Rank gate. Believing it's the end, he accepts the inevitable... ...But awakens to discover new and strange abilities. A quest window, like one from a video game- only visible to him! And with it, a secret means of "Leveling Up!" He now seeks to "level up" by hunting monsters and completing these quests... ...that can only be done solo!

I kind of enjoy it, but it can be frustrating.
I am not overly familiar with the anime or manwha but I really enjoyed the story have to admit the artstyle of the panels that tell the story in comic like form blew me away.
Your protagonist Jin woo starts off as the weakest hunter in the world but through a terrible event gains the ability to level up.
Most of the game takes place in dungeons ( inter dimensional shift I believe? ) and hunters are despatched to clear out dungeons filled with video game favorites like werewolves and goblins.
The boss battles in the story mode are spectacular and the mobile controls are surprisingly good with some great voice acting.
The only problem is the gameplay is super receptive which is why I have scored a 6.
There is after story game play like clearing gates and mining as well as encore events that let you replay boss battles with other characters from the game.
The games high point I do feel is the story and I may check out the anime due to this. I do wish there was more variety though.
