Description
In RUINSMAGUS, you’ll take on the role of a novice in the magical arts sent to investigate the abandoned ruins below the prosperous town of Grand Amnis. The town’s wealth depends largely on artifacts hidden deep within the ruins, protected by powerful Guardians. Faced with a daunting challenge, you must answer the question that haunts every one of your fellow citizens: What mysteries lurk beneath the gilded streets of Grand Amnis?
As a member of the renowned RUINSMAGUS Guild, your goal is to help strengthen it with magic, resources, and wisdom as you fulfill more than 25 unique, story-driven quests. Face off against guardians tasked with protecting the ruins from intruders – and solve deadly puzzles to advance the story. When you’ve completed a quest, head to the surface to acquire new items and upgrade your equipment in town – if you want to live another day, that is!
