Staple of Video Games and undersea films, the Underwater Ruins are a city, temple, ship, or similar place of majestic wonder submerged Under the Sea or a lake. Typically, the ruins will be Greco-Roman in appearance (lots of columns and arches) to evoke an Atlantis-like catastrophe. Usually these ruins will be artfully decayed but remarkably well preserved. This setting is a Hailfire Peaks of Under the Sea and Temple of Doom. You might see mer-people living in the ruins, or an actual domed city for air-breathers to live in nearby or hidden in the ruins. Expect to find areas with breathable air regardless for heroes to take a breather in. Intrepid Travelers Beware! These ruins are sometimes subject to Down the Drain. For partially submerged cities see Sunken City. For boss fights in video games that take place within these, see Underwater Boss Battle. |

The Merman's Children: The island city of Averorn was drowned long ago by a hungry kraken who was angry that the townspeople had stopped making their usual sacrifices. Tauno, Eyjan, and Kennin travel there in the cog Herning to loot the ruins. Most buildings have completely collapsed, but a few structures are still partly standing, including a roofless house where a skeleton tries to shelter two others. The siblings are delighted to see burst-open vaults of gold and jewels. | |

World of Warcraft: The sheer number of elven ruins in Ashenvale and Azhara is staggering; there is nary a body of water in these zones without a downed column, sunken arch, or pockmarked pillar in it. Massive earthquakes are to blame for all those night elf ruins underwater. Though they seem remarkably resistant to pressure and the ravages of 10,000 years. There are also ruins of a sunken Troll city off the coast of Stranglethorn Vale and sunken Titan ruins in the waters between Arathi and Wetlands. There is also the Tomb of Sargeras. Heck, the terrain type that was used to make these maps for The Frozen Throne is named "Sunken Ruins" in the editor. Notably, however, whenever the "Sunken Ruins" are encountered, they've been raised from the ocean floor. Cataclysm has the Sunken City of Vashj'ir and the town of Duskhaven in Gilneas, which gets flooded during the Worgen Starting zone because of the cataclysm. |

The earliest example is Labyrinth Zone from the original game, a half-sunken ancient ruin filled with spears, floating platforms, piranha badniks, and stone bear heads that shoot fire, even when submerged. A Palette Swap of this level serves as the third act of Scrap Brain Zonenote Act 3 of Scrap Brain was originally intended to be a sewer level, but time constraints forced the developers to essentially make "Labyrinth Zone Act 4". | |

Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Aquatic Ruin Zone in the Genesis version, which is an ancient half-sunken ruin filled with pillars that shoot spears, piranha badniks, floors that collapse when you walk across them, and pillars that can be destroyed with jump attacks. This level is somewhat easier than its predecessor, Labyrinth Zone, as the higher route is fully above the water. Aqua Lake Zone in the Game Gear and Master System versions, which is filled with spears, crab and crawfish badniks, and giant bubbles that Sonic can float in. Sonic spends the entirety of the stage's second act underwater. |

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates has the ruins of Rela Cyel, a Magitek facility used to control water levels in the lake. Much of it is flooded, but there are still enough controls functioning for the party to make their way through. The place is intact when they later visit its past, but retains the same mechanics for flooding and emptying rooms in order to progress. | |

XCOM Terror From The Deep: You shoot down alien craft all over the world, then go to capture or kill them. This happens around underwater ruins an awful lot. The Atlanteans must have had a global civilization. Occasionally, later in the game, the aliens will attempt to capture "Artefact Sites" in order to expand the range of their Molecular Control network. These sites are beneath ancient pyramid structures, and have a Used Future architecture. |

In Sonic Adventure, Sonic's section of Lost World has Sonic come across a huge underwater temple with a stone python swimming in it. To escape the temple, Sonic needs to find the three switches that open the exit door, and he must also press switches that raise the water level so that he can ride the stone python to reach the three switches to the exit door. In a later section of the same level, Sonic must light up a darkened temple and avoid falling into the water below it, and when he escapes that, he slides down a water slide leading to the next temple. | |

World War Z: Underwater ruins are the source of the outbreak. Patient Zero was a boy who had been diving for valuables with his father in a drowned township at the bottom of a Chinese reservoir. He returned to the surface with a bite wound and a death sentence for a large proportion of the human race, and his father never returned at all. It's implied by the authorities' reaction that the reservoir was created in the first place to attempt to cover up the (probably bioweapons) site. | |

The Elder Scrolls The series' lore includes the sunken continent of Yokuda, home to the ancestors of the Redguards. According to popular myth, it was "sunk beneath the sea" by a renegade band of Ansei, "sword saints" who could form swords out of their own spirits called "Shehai", using a Dangerous Forbidden Technique known as the "Pankratosword", which they could use as a Fantastic Nuke. (Other accounts state that the likely cause was a much more natural type of disaster.) There are references that indicate that parts of Yokuda didn't sink... or perhaps, were tall enough that they still were above sea-level when the sinking stopped; the remnants of Yokuda appear to be an archipelago. Morrowind: Mudan Grotto, off the coast of Ebonheart, leads to a long forgotten Dwemer ruin which contains the legendary Dragonbone Cuirass and a funny Easter Egg. Boethiah's shrine is off the west coast of Vvardenfell. Some time ago, it was swallowed by the ocean. You can get a quest from the Daedric Prince himself there to build him a new shrine. The Oblivion expansion Knights of the Nine adds an underwater Ayleid ruin where one of the artifacts was stored. For being underwater for so long, it still has a good amount of breathable air. |

Sonic the Hedgehog seems fond of this: The earliest example is Labyrinth Zone from the original game, a half-sunken ancient ruin filled with spears, floating platforms, piranha badniks, and stone bear heads that shoot fire, even when submerged. A Palette Swap of this level serves as the third act of Scrap Brain Zonenote Act 3 of Scrap Brain was originally intended to be a sewer level, but time constraints forced the developers to essentially make "Labyrinth Zone Act 4". Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Aquatic Ruin Zone in the Genesis version, which is an ancient half-sunken ruin filled with pillars that shoot spears, piranha badniks, floors that collapse when you walk across them, and pillars that can be destroyed with jump attacks. This level is somewhat easier than its predecessor, Labyrinth Zone, as the higher route is fully above the water. Aqua Lake Zone in the Game Gear and Master System versions, which is filled with spears, crab and crawfish badniks, and giant bubbles that Sonic can float in. Sonic spends the entirety of the stage's second act underwater. Tidal Tempest Zone from Sonic CD is an ancient half-sunken temple filled with pillars, pipes, and crawfish badniks. Sonic Chaos has Aqua Planet Zone, which is filled with pillars, spears, and chick badniks. Like Aquatic Ruin Zone from the Genesis version of Sonic 2, Sonic or Tails can choose to stay above the water altogether by taking the upper path. Hydrocity Zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is partially an ancient half-sunken ruin, but it's also a vertical high-speed level filled with tubes and slopes. There are plenty of pufferfish, shark, and piranha badniks present in this level as well. Hydrocity would later return in Sonic Mania. Blue Marine Zone in Sonic Blast is an icy underwater labyrinth where it's easy to lose track of where you are, particularly in Act 2. The level is also a huge maze of pipes, and perhaps its only saving grace is that these pipes provide oxygen. In Sonic Adventure, Sonic's section of Lost World has Sonic come across a huge underwater temple with a stone python swimming in it. To escape the temple, Sonic needs to find the three switches that open the exit door, and he must also press switches that raise the water level so that he can ride the stone python to reach the three switches to the exit door. In a later section of the same level, Sonic must light up a darkened temple and avoid falling into the water below it, and when he escapes that, he slides down a water slide leading to the next temple. Sonic Pocket Adventure has Aquatic Relix Zone, which essentially resembles an 8-bit version of Aquatic Ruin Zone from the Genesis version of Sonic 2. Like Aquatic Ruin, Sonic can choose to take the upper path to avoid the water altogether, though if you're looking for the optional puzzle pieces, you're gonna have to go underwater to find some of them. The level ends with a battle against Knuckles in an arena that resembles Hidden Palace Zone from Sonic and Knuckles. Sylvania Castle, the first level of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 2, is the ruins of an ancient castle that are partially sunken. This is also a staple in fangames: Sonic 3 D In 2 D (a Fan Demake of Sonic 3D Blast) makes Rusty Ruins Zone a water level, while Sonic Robo Blast 2 has Deep Sea Zone, which essentially is Tidal Tempest in 3D. Sonic Superstars is another underwater ruins level, where Sonic and his friends can sometimes submerge themselves in water to get around a level. The Water-Chaos Emerald power can help them move around easier, being able to freely swim in the water for a short time. |

Flipper and Lopaka: Beneath the surrounding ocean lies Quetzo, a sunken Millhouse island now home to many sea creatures, which unlike Illoka, has many modern influences. Lopaka, Flipper and their friends must work together to thwart the plans of the nefarious Dexter, an octopus wanting to claim Quetzo as his own | |

Age of Mythology: Atlantis sank at the end of the campaign, but you end up having to go back in the expansion. It just hasn't sunk very far yet, so there are a lot of ruins that are just under the surface, and a lot of areas shallow enough to wade through. | |

In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the lower part of Torvus Bog — a ruined, sunken temple, with a remix of Red Brinstar from Super Metroid. Dark Aether's version doesn't have nearly as much water, but is MUCH creepier and even more derelict. | |

StrikerS Sound Stage X: Early in, Subaru mentions an underwater ruin that was uncovered when the Marine Garden was being built. It could be seen from the Crystal Valley underwater tunnel. It's really romantic, the color's really blue and very beautiful, and it becomes very important later as it turns out that the Dark King Ixpellia is sleeping there. | |

Minecraft has two sorts of underwater ruins: Underwater Monuments are sprawling temple complex of green stone populated by Guardians that can only be found in the deep ocean. A more common variant consists of small clusters of partially destroyed buildings that vary in material depending on the type of ocean they are found in. One of these structures even mimics the Underwater Monument in shape, though it uses a different material. |

Final Fantasy X: These crop up quite a bit and can be explored — three of the main characters seem to be able to hold their breath indefinitely — two of them play underwater sports for a living, at least. | |

In Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy: The Underwater Temple, home to one of the game's Cosmic Keystones. You can apparently breathe there, too, thanks to some Applied Phlebotinum called oxyale. Final Fantasy III: There's the Temple of Time near the continent of Saronia, underwater. Final Fantasy X: These crop up quite a bit and can be explored — three of the main characters seem to be able to hold their breath indefinitely — two of them play underwater sports for a living, at least. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates has the ruins of Rela Cyel, a Magitek facility used to control water levels in the lake. Much of it is flooded, but there are still enough controls functioning for the party to make their way through. The place is intact when they later visit its past, but retains the same mechanics for flooding and emptying rooms in order to progress. |

In Phantasy Star III one NPC points out an underwater temple to you when you pass by it on a boat ride to an early quest, but it's not until near the end of the game that you actually get to go there with the help of a Transforming Mecha to get Orakio's Sword. | |

Monster Hunter 3 (Tri): Sunken beneath the waters that surround Moga Village and the Deserted Island are the Underwater Ruins, which once belonged to a now-extinct civilization. It is where Ceadeus, an Elder Dragon that is threatening the peace of Moga's inhabitants lies, and the player's character has to repel it during battle. In 3 Ultimate, it's possible to find the subspecies Goldbeard Ceadeus, as well as Abyssal Lagiacrus, here as well during G Rank. | |

Sonic Pocket Adventure has Aquatic Relix Zone, which essentially resembles an 8-bit version of Aquatic Ruin Zone from the Genesis version of Sonic 2. Like Aquatic Ruin, Sonic can choose to take the upper path to avoid the water altogether, though if you're looking for the optional puzzle pieces, you're gonna have to go underwater to find some of them. The level ends with a battle against Knuckles in an arena that resembles Hidden Palace Zone from Sonic and Knuckles. | |

Metroid: Super Metroid has the Wrecked Ship, a more science fictiony take on this. It's a mysterious spacecraft that crashed into the watery section of Crateria's surface that is full of dormant robots and ghosts. The first Metroid Prime features the ruins of the frigate from the beginning of the game about 3/4 submerged in water (accompanied by a beautiful piano song). In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the lower part of Torvus Bog — a ruined, sunken temple, with a remix of Red Brinstar from Super Metroid. Dark Aether's version doesn't have nearly as much water, but is MUCH creepier and even more derelict. |
