The Warrens are an ancient network of aqueducts and tunnels, overrun by discarded summoning experiments known as [[PigMan the Swine]].

** ''VideoGame/{{Persona 3}}'' has Tartarus, a massive tower that is only available during the "Dark Hour." You spend much of the way going up the tower, which has randomized floors and guardians every several floors, and the final battle is on the top floor. Your progress is gated, though, and you can only enter new sections of Tartarus by completing missions on each full moon, some of which only include boss battles but others of which have mini-dungeons.
** ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'' has you being tasked with rescuing (or in some cases, capturing) one person per month on average. Most floors in each dungeon are randomly generated, but others have a fixed layout, usually the ones with mini-bosses.
** ''VideoGame/{{Persona 5}}'' has Palaces as the main dungeon, with entirely fixed layouts. After completing the first Palace, you can also go to Mementos, which is a bit like Tartarus in its layout, and includes optional sidequest bosses.

* ''Webcomic/{{Housepets}}'': The focus of both Temple Crashing arcs, under different excuses that boil down to the same premise; Something valuable is in Pete's temple, let's bumrush in and grab it. The rules of the Temple specifically demand an RPG-esque party be assembled to do so, including granting powers based on the outfit you wear inside.
** ''Temple Crashers'' keeps it simple with one team (Keene, Sabrina, Zach, Karishad, Daryl) storming the temple for information on Pete's deal with Keene's father and mana.
** ''Temple Crashers 2'' undergoes some serious SequelEscalation; multiple teams dungeon crawling to reach the Mana Pool for their own purposes, split across multiple chapters and finally ending with [[spoiler: the Temple's destruction.]]

** A dungeon crawl appears to be part of the expedition to Cori Celesti in ''Literature/TheLastHero'', involving mad monks, evil fishmen, and puzzle traps. We don't see it though, just the aftermath with Silver Horde discussing how routine it all is, while the bard they've dragged with them is almost catatonic with shock.
