① Develop a strategy tailored to each Guest
In Library of Ruin, the player must receive Guests visiting the Library and transform them into books during tactical combat. They will have to identify the characteristics and weaknesses of the Guests before the start of the fight and prepare their Pages. Each Page and equipment must be adapted to the unique abilities of the Guests.
② The outcome of the fight will depend on the choices of Pages and dice rolls
During the fight, both sides throw dice to determine who acts first each turn. A match begins when both opponents attack each other.
In a match, both sides roll dice, and the one with the highest result wins. This allows them to deal damage to the opponent. Players will have to combine luck and skill to achieve victory.
