Description

A Dungeon Core is born in the shattered depths of a fallen Dwarf Hold, nestled in the debris of a lost workshop. A sundered Dwarf Hold is a rich and fertile place for a newborn dungeon, full of resources, stone carved secrets and extending dozens or even hundreds of floors deep...but this hold is not simply lost but claimed. The claimants and their hordes war amongst each other for final victory, extending their dominion at great cost and effort - and they will not welcome any newcomer.

    Starring our MC core which finds itself in some long forgotten dwarf forge, they make their goblin minions to create even more tools and contraptions, good stuff all around.

    Spured on by the mention of a first review in the most recent chapter, I've decided to write a revieew of my own. It is, in fact, the first review of anything I've ever done, so I hope I can do this story justice.
    Style: Originally, I wanted to give this 4 stars as I didn't feel there was anything amazing about the writing that felt like it went above and beyond. However, the LITRPG popup windows were so different and more thought out than any other I've seen in a story. Others feel generic and pointless, while these were without fail interesting.
    Grammar: Nothing much to say here. I didn't find any faults, so the author knows what they are doing.
    Story: Without going into spoilers, there is a unique element to this Dungeon Core story that carries it to a 5 star score. The starting location is pretty neat too.
    Character: None of the characters felt amazing or extra ineresting to me. Most of them just seem kinda there. Nothing bad, but nothing amazing either.
    Overall, 4.75/5, but that doesn't exist here so I'm giving it a 5/5 score. That aside, this is one of the stories I most eagerly await updates for and I cannot wait to see where it goes. Very much recommended for any Dungeon Core fan.

    For some reason no one has left a review so here I am.
    - The main characters personality and finding his own sense of self was done well.
    - The rpg elements are very similar to other stories but decently unique so it's easy to follow without being bland
    - Side characters are done well not an overly bloated roster while also not having everyone being generic.( Maybe have the Matrons of the clans be one side character/side story? Idk, expressing their thoughts on how the clans are developing in their own words and thoughts.
    - I like the opposition thus far as well, going from the perceivable Apex predator of the region to the beginnings of one of the factions that border the MC.
    Overall fun read hoping to to see that schedule going again.
