About this listen
Beware of spoilers! This story takes place on the same timeline as DCO 1, following the same key events but showing them from a different angle. As such it contains spoilers for the main series—you have been warned!
Alex can’t wait to dive into the latest cutting-edge VRMMORPG: Dungeon Core Online. It boasts an ever-changing, ever-growing dungeon with an AI so advanced, it feels practically human. Funny huh?
Forming a two-man dungeon party with his best friend, Fel, Alex is keen to sample everything DCO has to offer. From delicious fried Dicken to a fiery whiskey brewed from demonic corn, the friends eat and drink their way through the chaos that is DCO. Gaming is supposed to be fun after all, and leveling is always a little better when you’re tipsy right?
It’s going to be a wild ride, with levels, achievements, bosses, and more–but mostly there's going to be a lot of Dicken around.
Ever wanted to see Dungeon Core Online from the players' point of view? Well then pull up a chair, grab a piece of fried Dicken, and get ready for DCO as you have never seen it before in this low-stakes, shenanigans-filled buddy adventure!

James thought he would be just another adventurer in the world’s most anticipated dungeon delving VRMMORPG. But when he logs in, he soon finds out that he won’t be diving the dungeon - he will be creating it. Pretty awesome right? At least that was what he thought when he boldly chose "Random" as his dungeon type....

Ryan doesn’t remember much about his life before becoming a dungeon core. Only that he had a bit of a disagreement with the church—something to do with a beheading? Now reborn, Ryan begins to arm his darkness dungeon with devious traps, bestial zombies and ill-named skeletal creations, without doing anything too evil. Well, mostly. Some adventurers just deserve a stalactite to the head.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

When Kers is reborn as a dungeon core, he finds himself stuck in the most improbable of places: a cloud. High in the sky and far away from the usual solid resources, Kers must face the obvious question: How is a dungeon to build itself without wood or stone? Luckily, Kers has the sarcastic (and sometimes helpful) fairy Selena to help him get his bearings. Together, the pair delight in exploring Kers’ weird existence, creating novel mobs, and enticing adventures to plumb the lofty heights of his floors.

Accidentally murdered by a cleric in another universe during a botched resurrection, Arnold, a semi-pro gamer, wakes upon an altar to find himself incarnated into the overweight body of a farmer who could have been his fatter twin. He’s not the hero. He’s not the villain. He’s certainly not the chosen one who is there to save the world. He’s a clerical error. It could be a bad joke, but apparently, it happens so often that they have a standard procedure for returning you.

With Patch 17, the level of immersion experienced by players in their gaming capsules has made virtual reality indistinguishable from the real world. But every gamer's dream becomes a nightmare for Roman Kozhevnikov after he gets confined to Arkon against his will. And not just to Arkon, but to its deadliest zone - Demon Grounds. Playing - or rather living - as his character Krian, it's not just about survival for Roman.

The man offered him a new chance at life in a world he had created, a world with similar rules to the games Morgan loved to play. There is the promise of great rewards and power, he says, if Morgan manages to complete the Tower of Power.

For example, having to start in a new school district for his freshman year of high school thanks to his dad's new job. Inside the realm of his control, however, is the decision to try a brand-new sport purely to impress a girl. But the day of tennis tryouts proves far more fateful than Dan ever could have imagined, when a failed attempt by Truck-kun and the powers that be to kill him and transport his consciousness to a fantasy realm leaves him on Earth with miraculous abilities instead.

The usual result of a human taking a runaway semitruck head-on is a very sudden, very fast track to the pearly gates. But for one newly noncorporeal man, there's another option: become a dungeon. Feeling sorry for the desperate angel assigned to him, the man relents. Heck, if it doesn't work out, he can always chat with Saint Peter about it later. Next thing you know, he's a dungeon. Admittedly, a small run-down, somewhat unimpressive dungeon (more of a house, actually), but you gotta start somewhere, right?

Sorry... Really? Thrust? Anyway, Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his luck performer who always struggled to find his place. He certainly never wanted to be a hero. He just hoped to earn a living doing what he loved. That all changes when he pisses off the wrong guy and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair. Getting used to a new world is tough. It's even tougher when you're surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, super hot elf assassins, strange magic, and a jaded System that doesn't appear interested in being charged with yet another companion.

For the love of Dickens
Dungeon Core Online: Dicken Around
Like everyone else, Alex is incredibly excited about the new immersion game that will be releasing shortly, Dungeon Core Online. It is said to have some of the most realistic experiences that you can have in a MMO game. Even better, he is planning on spending all of this time with Fel. She is his best friend and hopefully more soon.
Dicken around is a story set in the Dungeon Core Online universe. It is a stand alone that you do not have to have read DCO: Remastered to understand or enjoy. You will definitely enjoy it! What a fun series! Alex is a far more confident character than James. It is also really fun to see the events from a player’s perspective. Even more so for me, this story focuses on two pet classes. My only complaint is that I wanted the book to be a lot longer!

A great read on it own
This takes place in the same universe, there are some minor interactions with already know characters, but this stands on its own. You don’t need to have read the other books. Reading one before the other will have spoilers for the other, of course, but they compliment each other well.
In response to another review, there is a budding romance here, but in my mind it adds to the overall story. If the romance wasn’t there, the story would be completely different as the interactions and emotions between the two would be wildly different. There is nothing like a harem or cringy sex scenes in this book, there is a romance between two people around their 20s and everything that goes with that… feeling and emotions and all that, but it’s also not a distraction from the story, it part of it.
Anyway, I’d recommend the book by itself and I’d recommend the book if you read the others as well.

Wow! This one is so much better than the name!
It's true, the title is a little tongue in cheek, but the story is good. Good character progression, romance, and world building. I enjoy the nod to newly launched games and their immediate updates and patches, it keeps the pacing correct and prevents the ever so popular, yet controversial, OP MC. If that's your shtick hey more power to you, but even you will enjoy this book.
The comedy is well timed to keep the book a fun read, balanced nicely with level and skill progression to keep the action interesting. There is a romantic relationship but nothing explicit, just a couple of fade to black scenes. I am looking forward to the next book in this series, it is a VR book, but even those that don't care for VR might still enjoy this one as the "real world" is just small slice of life moments and the majority of the book is in game.
I did receive a free copy of this book, but would never sully myself by being bought, my review is as honest as I know how to be.
