Ruins is a game where the player controls a dog in a small, desolate location filled with a piano, a monument, and some trees. The dog can chase after rabbits, but there is no action element to it. Instead, catching up with a rabbit triggers a short conversation that reveals more about the background story and what the setting represents. For each play session, the information revealed can be different. Some conversations are one-sided, while for others one or two answers to questions are shown to steer the topic.
Much of the game is about who the dog represents, and the story of a memory between two people. Each part of a conversation slowly reveals a bit more and Chopin's preludes play an important role. The player is free to have the dog explore the environment, but there are boundaries around the small area. The dog can walk around or run, but there are no other challenges. The camera rotates and zooms automatically.
