Happily, this larger focus is delivered beautifully through the utilization of its amazing cast.įor various reasons I won’t dive into, this game’s story revolves around a hodgepodge cast of characters who, each for their own reasons, has found themselves directly in the path of the Black Mists. But while the popular Netflix series keeps its scope small, focusing purely on the twin cities of Piltover and Zaun, this game broadens the scope, giving the player a taste of the larger Runeterra world. Just like Riot’s current smash hit animated series Arcane, Ruined King: A League of Legends Story does a great job of welcoming new fans into its rich world. Now, having spent numerous hours fighting back the Black Mists with the likes of Braum, Ahri, and Miss Fortune I can say Ruined King: A League of Legends Story delivers everything I was hoping for and so much more.įirst, let’s start by talking about the biggest element that has held back Airship Syndicate games in the past. But if the developer could successfully fuse a new iteration of their fantastic gameplay design with the wonderful characters of Runeterra it could be a genuine hit. Airship Syndicate’s previous work in the genre, Battlechasers: Nightwar, boasted some unique gameplay mechanics while suffering from a forgettable cast and a story that did nothing to hook the player. When Riot announced that Airship Syndicate was getting to develop a turn-based strategy game for them, I was immediately intrigued. Can six unlikely allies manage to come together to stop this threat to their world? This time, the whole of Runeterra is in danger. But this time, it seems the controller of the Black Mists has their eye set on more than just Bilgewater. This haunting phenomenon periodically creeps across the water from the Shadow Isles to lay siege to the people of Bilgewater Bay. It is published by Riot Forge and is developed by Airship Syndicate. Ruined King: A League of Legends Story is a turn-based RPG based in the League of Legends‘ world of Runeterra.
