Hello Crawlers! What do you do when life changes? A lot? Namely when you get kidnapped by aliens and forced to fight in a Magical-tech dungeon where power and loot are the only ways to keep living?…
[singing] That's just a first impression.
I could be totally wrong.
It's only a first impression.
And though the impression is strong, it never can hurt to question-
First impressions, everybody, and since I think you may be the only one who hasn't read the Dungeon Crawler Carl book series, Jim, we'll start with you.
[laughs]
That, that's my-
There you go
... that's my assessment of it.
[laughs]
So if, if that sounds like a great game that has elements from X-Crawl RPG by Brendan Lasalle, Fortnite, the online game, which I've never played, and Rick and Morty, this is, this is your ticket.
And they, and they had me at John Remarsh, and Liz knew that when she picked the game, so.
[laughs]
Yeah.
Corbitt?
I immediately got the same impression that I think Mike might have, which is, wow, this strikes me exactly [laughs] 100% as a copy of an unnamed book-

But I will admit, reading it, I, the, my, my first second impression, I guess, was that, okay, it's a little deeper than that.
It's actually a little... it's different, but it's not bad.
It's fun.
Yep.
