Level 1 of the Ancient Ruins
Connected To: Dig Site

Ancient Ruins is a dungeon area connected by elevator to the Dig Site just west of Potcrock Isle. It appears to be the ruins of a long disused shopping complex, and is filled with various items from the era such as shopping carts, advertisements and storage containers. The interconnectedness of the map with Potcrock Isle suggests that the latter was built under the shopping complex to take advantage of the already-built basement substructures.

There is a fridge to save and a cooking station in on level 6 just before fighting the boss.

Treasure Chests

There are 7 treasure chests which can be found during Chapter 1 in the Ancient Ruins.
