Floor 10 Covers Book 8

Floor 10: The Races

This page covers events in Book 8. If you haven't read this far, turn back now.

Floor briefing
Races. Vehicles. Upgrades. It seems too simple. Ignore the glitches.

Overview

Floor 10 introduces a racing format. Vehicle-based races where the last-place finisher is eliminated each round. Between races, crawlers select upgrades for their vehicles. The track gets more challenging after each round.

It seems straightforward. It is not straightforward. Nothing in this dungeon is ever what it appears to be.

Book 8 is out
A Parade of Horribles covers Floors 10 and 11. What's above comes from the official book description only, so it is safe to read before you start Book 8. Full Floor 10 events are in the Book 8 spoiler zone.

See the Book 8 hub for all formats.
Field notes
Floor 10. Race. Do not finish last. Upgrade the vehicle between races; the tracks will get worse, and that is by design. The glitches are not your concern. Everything is fine, Crawler.

What we know

Floor 10: questions readers ask

How many crawlers make it to the tenth floor in Dungeon Crawler Carl?

In Dungeon Crawler Carl, the tenth floor is where the crowd starts thinning for a new reason: from here on, crawlers are offered a way out. Book 1 already explains that crawlers who reach the tenth floor can take an exit deal, and the deals improve the deeper they go.

The actual head counts, how many start the floor and how many finish it, are given inside Book 8 and double as a spoiler for how Book 7 ends. Both are in the Book 8 recap.
