The Dungeon Crawler Carl books have become incredibly popular over the past few years, but 2026 has been especially good for the LitRPG series. Not only did Matt Dinniman publish the eighth entry in the series, we also got confirmation that there's a TV show in the works for Peacock. Perhaps the biggest news for the series, however, is that we're getting a tabletop roleplaying game.
The DCC RPG crowdfunding campaign launched on Backerkit back in April and raised an obscene amount of money in a relatively short time. The upcoming tabletop adaptation from Renegade Game Studios gathered over $13 million for the project, absolutely demolishing its goal of $250K. For those who missed the chance to back the project, the good news is you can now preorder the core rule book and miniatures directly from Amazon.
At the heart of any TTRPG is a core set of rules you'll need to follow. This rulebook is pretty much the only thing you need to actually start playing, but additional miniatures and such definitely add to the experience.
As for what gameplay actually looks like, you can check out the official 'How to Play' guide on YouTube.
The first set of miniatures up for preorder is officially called The Royal Court. This includes nine total miniatures of the main characters, all of which have been a part of the Royal Court of Princess Donut throughout the books. The list includes: Carl with a bomb, Carl with Princess Donut, Carl with his Xistera, Princess Donut, Princess Donut riding Mongo, Young Mongo, baby Mongo, Katia, and Samantha.
The second set of miniatures are focused on Allies and Enemies outside of the core characters. There are a total of 10 pre-painted figures included here, focusing on key side characters outside of The Royal Court. The list includes: Hekla, Eva, Prepotente, Bianca, Lucia Mar Night, Lucia Mar Day, Quan Ch, Florin, and Lucia Mar's dogs Gustavo 3 and Cici.
Amazon doesn't include much information about what's included in the starter set, but according to the Backerkit page, it "focuses on the tutorial floors, teaching crawlers how to survive in Borant’s World Dungeon".
