As you can probably see, this is not an RPG for the faint of heart or those who love their graphics big and flashy. Dragon ruins takes things back to basics with simple wireframe dungeons and automatic battles, where your strategy is where to place your chosen characters, and when to head back to the surface.

Yes, this is the definition of a throwback, as it's very rare you see something that takes inspiration from pre-Ultima: Underworld dungeon crawlers. Although if you're an enthusiast for those kinds of games, the lack of other pressing issues, such as hunger, may be a bit of a turn-off.
However, if you're looking for a proper old-school experience, then Dragon Ruins is definitely one to put your time into. And with its full-on roguelike progression, this is one adventure you can easily sink your hours into!
