Part cozy, part bloody, all fun.

Hidden underneath the small town of Haverly Arms lies an entrance to the Dragons Game, an extensive world where adventurers compete to collect power objects and progress to the next level.

Temerity's father and brothers have been down in the game for years, leaving Temerity and her mother, plus their house goblin, Half-pint, to manage their tavern. Bored with small-town life, Temerity decides to enter the tunnel labyrinth, launching an adventure to survive Level One of the Dragons Game: Dark Town.

Critic reviews

"A fun read. Like playing a game." —JamReads

"It was such a fast-paced, fun palate cleanser of a story that could easily have enchanted me in one sitting." —Kris (A Fictional Escapist)

"I'm going to make this into a DnD campaign and roll those dice." —Alex Fomichev (Forever DM)

A ton of fun, a unique blend of GameLit with "real life" fantasy without Isekai. The main characters display proper reasoning and growth. Loved the female MC!

Great Fun, Excellent Female MC!

This was a super cute adventure tale of a tavern owners daughter and a hobgoblin heading to a world of challenges in order to try to win the game.
I really liked the relationships and how each level/area changed as they went through. The world is inventive and fun!
The narrator brought it all to life so well! Really good production and clarity.

An 'almost' cozy LitRPG tale
