What is Dragon Shelter?

Dragon Shelter is a cozy fantasy life simulation game about rescuing dragons and rebuilding the sanctuary they live in. You restore an abandoned farm, grow crops, gather materials, and craft habitats that match each dragon's climate, then cook meals that keep your residents healthy and growing.

The core loop ties creature care, facility building, and a light economy together: take in a dragon, assess its needs, place it in a suitable habitat, keep it fed and comfortable, then reinvest the rewards into new habitats and rarer companions. Our wiki breaks down every system with beginner walkthroughs, farming and crafting guides, and detailed dragon references.
