Description
This is a story about a man who not only enters the dungeon drunk, but the dungeon indirectly supports this habit. The only question now was what would kill him first, the dungeon or his liver?
Author: This is a story based on a daydream I had after reading some dungeon stories. It's also in first person past tense.

- JaksterzooRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Quality reading.
I usually don't even rate much less decide to give a bais review, but I had to review this one.
Style Score: 5/5
I personally read to read a type of story, to imagine the place where the MC is at, and to imagine the scence. This story (for me) was perfect because it didn't forget to describe where the MC was. Don't want to spoil and I won't, but it felt that no matter where he was I knew he was there and the mood of the setting. Personally I loved that part the most because it never seemed to stray from the topic at hand.
Story Score: 4.5/5
Now, this one is slightly bais. I took .5 off because it was a dungeon story, and because he had parent problems (technequelly?) so I wasn't really sure if I should of. Why?
It is because the MC is (FOR ONCE) a grown man! (Would you look at that!) He also loves to drink, which usually isn't seen often, and the 'dungeon' is technequelly not separate ones like usual. (that we are told at least). Can't go much further without spoiling, but the story itself is unqiue and pretty easy to fall in love with. Still not sure if I should give it a five or not.
Character Score: 5/5
This isn't really even debatable for me, if you read the story you would see my point.
For negatives- He survives all his encounters. (There is a reason why he does though, besides the 'he needs to live for a story' deal.)
I am not going to eleborate (which I would reuse points from the story score) but the character is unique, loving, has a bais for himself, and feels like an actual human being that wants to do good but can have a backbone. There is also a little mystery in the book that is left unsaid, creating a type of suspense or letting the reader think for themselves. Few negatives I can give if any.
Grammar Score- 5/5
This I am usually leineit on. If I can't find any basic errors or weird sentences, than in my book it is a five. I didn't see any basic if advance errors, (although I wasn't looking for them intentionally) so this is a five. - KillYouRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The book is pretty decent. I've read a lot of Dungeon Core books on this site, and plenty seem half-thought out. Or have boring characters. And an overpowered Dungeon that makes me care for nothing. Plus the update schedule is relatively kept to. And the author does make apologies. So there's that.
The book itself has a good premise. What if a Dungeon specialized in alcohol was created following a non-gender based MC. That last part is interesting. Since many stories have an MC who's either a he or a she. But this Dungeon doesn't follow any of that. It's just a hunk of rock with no sexual abilities or shape that summons murder hornets. Which offers some new ways to tell a story.
Hopefully this book gets completed. And we can add a decent Dungeon Core book to the very small list of decent Dungeon novels on this site. - LogosthusRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I will get you shitfaced and toss you into a dungeon. Story is very well told and a newish take on the genre. Rather than individual dungeons it seems to be one massive labaryth where the gods can mess with mortals.
Please keep up the good work. - NecamijatRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0A Dungeon story where the protagonist is not a Dungeon itself or connected to one is a relatively uncharted territory and Vocaloid's storytelling is both riveting and concise enough to push through.
The main character has inherent flaws and a goal to work towards to, and the attention to detail makes it an interesting read.
Adding to that a steady release date of sizeable chapters, and the story is being put together nicely.
There's an odd sense of rooting for the underdog when reading through the story of the main character, and the author plays to the strengths of the genre and the novelties of the story well.
