Dungeon Crawler Carl

You know what’s worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what’s worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all the survivors for a sadistic, intergalactic game show. That’s what.

Join Coast Guard veteranarian Carl and his ex-girlfriend’s cat, Princess Donut, as they try to survive the end of the world—or just get to the next level—in a video game-like, trap-filled fantasy dungeon. A dungeon that’s actually the set of a reality television show with countless viewers across the galaxy.

Exploding goblins. Magical potions. Deadly, drug-dealing llamas. This ain’t your ordinary game show.

Fresh. Creative. Hilarious. I’m obsessed…Princess Donut is my queen.

Actor, producer and New York Times bestselling author Felicia Day
