About

The sun shines high in the sky. You arrive at a ruin in the desert, with only the vague promise of a priceless historical artefact hidden inside. Before you reach it, many dangers must be overcome. Can you find a path through this abandoned structure without losing your head?

The Ruin Wanderer is a small episodic homage to the classic female archeologist simulators from the 90's. It focuses on exploration and light puzzle solving in beautifully desolate environments. Above all else, it is about atmosphere; just you, the silent ruins of a long gone civilization, and here and there a swinging blade or spike pit to watch out for.
