Gameplay

In Dragon is Dead we watch the action from the side. While traveling through various, but equally gloomy locations, we face hordes of enemies - monsters created by Guernian, among whom we can find both common enemies and powerful bosses. During dynamic battles, it's worth observing the movements of adversaries to discover their weak points and potential gaps in their defense.

On the battlefield, we use melee weapons and various combat skills. Additionally, along the way we collect runes, which we can combine with each other, thus creating legendary items. We also acquire artifacts, which further increase our combat potential. Artifacts release various synergies, so it is worth experimenting with different combinations.

As we progress, we develop our character and acquire new equipment, which allows us to face increasingly greater challenges over time. We have to start the journey all over again when we die, however we keep our equipment and runes. This means that we are gradually becoming more powerful.
