Dead Dragons is a fantasy RPG with a story-driven plot, classic turn-based battles and world exploration with pixel artwork.
Who will survive—dragons or humans?
100 years ago, humans triumphed over dragons, bringing peace to the world. But whispers of their return ignite a thrilling tale! Take on the role of a brave protagonist, uncover the mystery behind a young girl tied to the dragons, and decide the fate of an entire world.
A Dragon-Hunting RPG Like No Other!
Master the innovative Rotation Battle System—switch party positions mid-fight to outmaneuver enemies, protect your allies, and strike with precision. Build up the Ruin Gauge to unleash devastating attacks in Ruin Mode, summoning special allies to turn the tide of battle. Strategy meets epic fantasy in a game where every choice matters!
Rotation Battles
When choosing an action during battles, in addition to the standard commands, you can change the battle setting between 'Rotation' and 'Stay'. If you choose 'Rotation', at the end of the character's action, the positions of all the members of the party will change. If you choose 'Stay', the characters' positions will not change.
When selecting actions, the order of the following turns is displayed on the right of the screen, so it is possible to change enemies' positions appropriately. For example, when an enemy is going to attack, you can bring a character with high defensive strength to the vanguard, and conversely, you can move a character with low defensive strength to the rearguard.
Ruin Mode
In a normal attack, you can launch a Downshot, in which you can choose one of three attack points. If you manage to hit the enemy's weakpoint, a critical attack is unleashed. In addition, if you succeed with a Downshot three times, your Ruin Gauge will reach its maximum value, and you will be able to make use of the powerful Ruin Mode.
In Ruin Mode, you can summon special sub-characters, and make use of powerful skills. If you use these well, it is possible to inflict huge damage in a single attack.
