Get ready to enter your very own World Dungeon! Play as a familiar face, such as 🧨 Carl, 👑🐈 Donut, 🐊 Florin, 🐐 Prepotente, or build your own unique crawler, complete with a customizable class and race (if you survive to the third floor)! Entertain your viewers, gain followers, and survive an onslaught of horrors that will make your tootsies curl.

Hello, Crawlers. 

This isn't your typical crowdfunding campaign. It's two full tabletop games launching together: the official Dungeon Crawler Carl RPG, a full skill-based TTRPG set in the brutal, televised World Dungeon, and Dungeon Crawler Carl: Unstoppable, a solo and co-op card-crafting deck-builder.

Both games are fully licensed adaptations of Matt Dinniman's best-selling Dungeon Crawler Carl series, brought to the table by Renegade Game Studios.
 
🐊 30+ playable races and a massive class roster with iconic subclasses
🎲 Includes rules and guides to make your own classes, races and more which means nearly infinite character combinations of backgrounds, skills, races, and classes
📦 Physical and digital products including dice sets, a GM screen, a character journal, miniatures, and more
💳 Flexible backing with BackerKit's Pay Over Time on pledges $150+
🏆 Stretch goals and achievements to keep the campaign going

You are on the Dungeon Crawler Carl RPG page. To switch to Unstoppable, the Deck Builder, click HERE.

Now get out there and pledge, pledge, pledge.

New Achievement! Double-Billed!

This may look like a regular campaign, but it’s actually (and enthusiastically) two games in one go. 

The System AI has deemed it necessary, and frankly overdue, to bring both the Dungeon Crawler Carl RPG and Dungeon Crawler Carl: Unstoppable to the table at the same time. Back one. Back both. Either way, you're getting more dungeon for your gold, and the viewers are absolutely losing their minds about it.

"Surviving is winning, Louis. Everything else is bullshit."

Based on the best-selling book series, this official TTRPG lets you become a crawler in the brutal, televised labyrinth known as the World Dungeon. Build your character from the ground up with nearly infinite combinations of backgrounds, skills, races, and classes. Roll dice, rack up achievements, entertain your viewers, crack open loot boxes, and try not to get killed. 
Fight mobs and dangerous bosses across an ever-deepening dungeon that gets harder the further you descend. Craft cool and unique items, make up your own skills, and choose from dozens of races and classes. The System AI, gods, factions, talk show hosts, and thousands of other NPCs are all waiting to make your life interesting for quadrillions of viewers. Other crawlers might want to join you. Or kill you. Sometimes both. 

Edit
"You can't save them all."

 
Create a crawler as unique as you, with truly limitless possibilities. The RPG’s customization tools lets you mix and match (or fully create) your own classes, backgrounds, skills, and more, resulting in near-infinite combinations. No two crawlers are ever quite the same; and the System AI wouldn’t have it any other way.

Start with dozens of backgrounds inspired by your life before the dungeon, or invent your own. Choose your stats. Build custom skills from the ground up or pull from expansive pre-built options. Survive to the third floor, and you’ll unlock race and class selection, opening the door to even more wildly unique builds.
Unleash pyromantic destruction as a Fire Mage Arcanist, charm and bluff your way through encounters as a Former Child Actor, or pump out some serious lead with the Shotgun Messenger.

"What in god's name is going on out here?"

Good for you. You've finally unlocked the marketplace upgrade. Now you can see all the items that you can purchase!

Below you can find details about each item. Then you can choose a Pledge Tier that includes the items you want to buy, and there's an Add-ons section if you want to pick-and-choose items that aren't included in the tier you chose. This was put together to be similar to normal Earth online shopping.
The Dungeon Crawler Carl Roleplaying Game Starter Set has everything you need to bravely (or stupidly) dive into the World Dungeon! You and the other people of Earth can team up to fight mobs, battle bosses, and blow shit up in true Carl fashion. And who knows? You might just win the AI’s favor…

Now get out there and kill, kill, kill!

This Starter Set focuses on the tutorial floors, teaching crawlers how to survive in Borant’s World Dungeon. It weighs in at 6lbs of gaming goodness and contains a whole core book's amount of content!

 "Welcome, again, Crawlers to the third floor! There are still a few stragglers working on their class and race choices, and that’s okay. The vast majority of you are out and about and just starting to learn about the wonders of the Over City."

The Dungeon Crawler Carl Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook is 300+ pages focusing on world dungeon floors 3 to 5. This book will walk through character creation, skills, spells, neighborhoods, saferooms, loot, mobs and a whole lot more!
Built specifically to conceal the pieces of paper that are covered in your random doodles and scribbles.
 
This premium GM screen expertly hides everything from your players so they cannot see how much shit is being made up by you on-the-spot.

Contains more than 20 handy tables for easy reference including:
  • Step By Step Combat
  • Common buffs and debuffs
  • Combat skill and non-skill actions
  • Stat Vales & Modifiers
  • HUD Mini Map Key
  • Reference For Making Up Your Own Loot On The Fly


Develop your crawler’s backstory with 40 introspective questions. Keep track of other crawlers in the dungeon with the Crawler Profile pages. Includes plenty of room to take notes, draw, or map out the dungeon with lined, dotted, and gridded pages. Features full color character art of everyone’s favorite Borant publicity liaison, Zev, as the cover. Plus, there’s a handy bookmark ribbon to help keep your place!

  • An expanded character sheet
  • 8 blank Crawler Profiles to keep track of party members or other crawlers in the dungeon

Support our campaign with greater flexibility! BackerKit's Pay Over Time option allows backers pledging $150 or more to split their payment into four monthly installments after our campaign ends.

Here's how it works: When you pledge $150+, you'll see the Pay Over Time option at checkout. Once our campaign successfully funds, you'll be charged 25% of your total pledge monthly over four months. Your pledge is confirmed immediately, and you'll receive all rewards alongside other backers once fulfillment begins. This payment flexibility makes it easier to support at higher tiers while managing your budget effectively.

There's no interest or additional fees, just a more accessible way to back the projects you love! Look for the Pay Over Time option during checkout when pledging $150 or more.
