About this site

An independent route reference for Dragon Traveler players.

Dragon Companion turns a long Shovel Event route into two usable views: an interactive board simulation and a compact step-by-step sheet. The goal is to make every coordinate, action, and inventory checkpoint easy to verify while playing.

What we publish

The site focuses on Dragon Traveler Shovel Event routes leading toward the Floor 2160 goal. A new event can change the board path and total number of steps, so the simulator and sheet are refreshed for the current event. The website does not connect to the game, automate play, or read account information; users advance the guide manually.

Interactive map

A visual board with a current-step marker, active-floor window, route statistics, affected cells, playback controls, and browser-based progress saving.

Route sheet

The current event sequence formatted as step, floor, A–F row, and action for players who prefer a compact checklist or second-screen reference.

Written guide

Original explanations for coordinates, action labels, route statistics, limitations, progress storage, and ways to diagnose a mismatch.

How route information is presented

Each route entry records a step number, action type, row, floor, active floor, shovels spent, item inventory, and any cells expected to be affected. The simulator uses those fields to draw the selected step and calculate its stats. The route sheet exposes the core instruction fields without the larger board.

Keeping both views tied to one numbered sequence makes reports specific. Instead of saying that a late floor looks wrong, a player can identify the first differing step, its coordinate, the expected action, and the observed result. That evidence is more useful than guessing from a later board state.

Verification standard

  • Coordinates must agree between the map and the route sheet.
  • The expected active floor, shovel count, bombs, and rockets should remain internally consistent from one step to the next.
  • Chest and power-up actions are tracked separately so later inventory checks can expose an earlier missed pickup.
  • Pages show an updated date and retain a beta notice while community verification is still recommended.

Corrections and editorial independence

Accuracy matters more than preserving a published route. If you find a mismatch, stop at the first affected step and report the step number, floor, row, expected action, current inventory, and what appeared in the game. Reports with a screenshot of the local board state are easier to evaluate than reports based only on a later floor.
