★★★★★ 5.0

The concept of the apocalypse being introduced through a game box that feels truly nostalgic of the 90s and early 2000s is great. The monsters we see in the first Dungeon are fresh, in every sense. Overall, there's a whole lot of originality tied into the basic concepts of any LitRPG apocalypse.
I would recommend this even just because the author is presenting us with a completely different POV than the one we are accustomed to when it comes down to an apocalyptic setting. In a way, this feels more like The Gamer's Webtoon than your standard System Apocalypse stuff.
Waiting for more to leave an advanced review. So far? Extremely promising.

★★★ 2.5

The story is clearly missing something but it has potential.
So far the story seems to be all about the action and combat, but no one really has interesting abilities so it's not fun to read about the combat.
The three primary ingredients in my opinion for a good lit RPG story are action, world building, progression, and most importantly, feeling.
The story has action though it could be better, it has progression even though the progression is confusing and doesn't make much sense, it has some world building which seems to be it's most entertaining aspect.
It lacks feeling. The author seems to focus on a personal tick for the main character which is hatred of messes, but from scene to scene, I don't really get a sense of the main character's mood and one of the most fun aspects of progression is experiencing. The main characters joy at gaining new skills and we haven't really gotten any of that.
Suggestion for the author: Go through the story and tell us how the ability is feel and how the environment feels and the joys and sorrows of the main character. From the author notes, it looks like you're already working on editing so that's good. Maybe minimize the action until the action can be interesting due to interesting skills rather than just talking about how main character almost died a bunch of times and got lucky with bug spray.
