A methodical, mission-driven open-world survival game blending tactical combat and cooperative play with philosophical undertones from Wang Yangming's teachings.

What players say

Players are split on DragonRoad. Many call it an unfinished, poorly optimized mess with terrible controls and no guidance, while others praise the solo developer's ambition and responsive updates. The game blends Eastern philosophy, dragons, and historical fantasy, but its many glitches and lack of polish frustrate as much as its low price and earnest scope attract.
