Trivia[]
- In early concept art, The Ruins featured a fallen tower that created an archway. This idea was later dismissed as the technology was not advanced enough to make the theme safe. The tower was shortened and placed off to the side as a reference to the early concept.
- The front featured exclusive AtmosFX, which had a CGI version of the display, with several characters attempting to scare customers.
- The original title of the YouTube video was Church Ruins. It was later changed to The Ruins for an unknown reason.
