- CoopCaderRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I usually don't review so I won't go into much depth, but this story is really good compared to others on royalroad. I had to drop a review because of just how underrated I think this book is. Characters feel real, clear plot and progression, low amount of grammar mistakes. Give this a shot if you liked other time-loop books.
- GBScallyRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5From page one, this was an incredibly fun read. The author has obviously spent a lot of time setup an interesting world and a unique dungeon for their story. And the same care is put into the characetrs--from the grizzled veteran to the annoying noble fop. Overall, it was an engrossing story that I would recommend to anyone,
Style - The style is just right for a dungeon devling story, and the writer keeps up fast pace with just the right about of description thrown in. And everything flows well, with each chapter leading right into the next one without any annoying padding or boring bits.
Grammer - There are a few mistakes sprinkled throughout the story, though nothing that detracts from the overall experience. But otherwise, it's really quite solid for a web novel.
Story - The story was a little harder to judge, as I'm only on chapter 7 at the moment. However, the descent into the dungeon has been quite fun so far, and there have been hints of a much deeper story. I think this will only improve from here on out, especially with the overall premise.
Character - The characters are what really make the story, and I like seeing the world through the veteran's eyes. The other character's all fill their roles well, even the ones the reader is supposed to dislike. I think the author has done a great job setting up varied characters to create conflict and they all have their own motivations, which is nice to see. - Daniel ZRoyal Road★★★ 3.0A repetitive dungeon delve - I can see how it attracts fans of the genre however and this gets it the 3 stars
Psychological characters are fairly stereotypical, paychological responses implausible in key points, and I lack the time loop sense of mystery, perhaps because of it being lost in the fight-next-monster-rinse-and-repeat and perhaps because of the big spoiler which is the title.
Grammar is all right by rr standard, though plenty of proofreading clearly needed.
Overall, I would recommend to give this a go if you are a dungeon delve fan. If you are here because of the features that typically make time loop stories interesting, or if you are here as someone with a general interest in fantasy fiction, I would avoid though.
