About Dragon Ruins
Dragon Ruins drops players into ancient ruins near Faselei, the capital of Isigwere, where a queen summons adventurers to defeat a lingering dragon. Players form a four‑hero party from eight classes and navigate a micro‑dungeon that blends exploration with automatic combat.
Progress is earned through level‑ups, equipment upgrades, and strategic choices to fight or flee. The game includes a teleporter scroll for quick town trips, medicine for reviving fallen allies, and an NG+ mode that intensifies monster groups and strengthens the final boss.
01 / THE GUIDE
Party Assembly
Choose four heroes from eight distinct classes before entering the ruins. Each class contributes its own combat style, influencing how automatic battles resolve.
Balancing roles—such as offense, defense, and support—helps manage the decision points where you may opt to fight or retreat. A well‑rounded party reduces the risk of losing members before reaching the dragon’s lair.
- Mix a defensive class with two damage‑focused ones for flexibility.
- Consider a support class early to mitigate early defeats.
02 / THE GUIDE
Automatic Battles
Combat runs automatically once you encounter monsters, but you retain control over whether to continue fighting or to run away. This decision directly affects party health and resource consumption.
Choosing to flee preserves health but may delay progress, while pressing on can yield experience and loot needed for later upgrades. The system encourages weighing risk versus reward at each encounter.
- Retreat when multiple low‑level foes appear together.
- Push forward if you have recently upgraded equipment.

03 / THE GUIDE
Growth and Equipment
Heroes gain levels and can enhance equipment as they advance through the ruins. Level‑ups make heroes stronger, while equipment enhancement raises combat effectiveness.
Investing in both avenues creates a stronger party capable of surviving tougher monster groups, especially in NG+ where enemies scale up.
- Prioritize equipment upgrades after each level‑up.
- Balance stat boosts with gear improvements for optimal growth.
04 / THE GUIDE
Revival and Teleportation
Fallen party members can be revived using medicine, which restores them to active duty. Teleporter scrolls provide a fast return to town and back, allowing quick access to shops and healing.
These tools help manage downtime and keep the party ready for the next challenge, especially when exploring deeper sections of the ruins.
- Carry at least one medicine before venturing far.
- Use a teleporter scroll after a major boss to restock.
05 / THE GUIDE
NG+ Mode
After completing the main run, NG+ unlocks a harder playthrough where monsters appear in larger groups and the final boss receives a strength boost. This mode tests the limits of your party’s development.
NG+ encourages replayability by demanding better preparation, smarter fight‑or‑flight choices, and more thorough equipment enhancement.
- Enter NG+ only after fully upgrading equipment.
- Adapt your fight/flight strategy to larger enemy groups.
