Ruined King: A League of Legends Story
Ruined King: A League of Legends Story is a story-driven, turn based role-playing game that features fan favorite champions, innovative turn-based combat, and beautiful art direction along with brand new surprises. The story advances the stories of many champions in the LoL Universe and offers an exciting new way to experience the World of Runeterra.
What it feels like
Story-driven advancement of character arcs and emotional beats across a narrative journey implies sincere emotional investment. Story-rich narrative inviting reflection on champion motivations and the world of Runeterra.
What it's about
The Shadow Isles, Black Mist, and ruin-centered narrative evoke a grim, decayed fantasy world. Uncovering secrets of the Black Mist provides a central mystery driving the narrative forward. A party uniting to face the Black Mist and Shadow Isles echoes classic heroes rising against a corrupting evil.
How it plays
Turn-based combat is explicitly described as central and innovative to the design. Uniting and controlling a party of distinct League champions is a core loop throughout the game. Turn-based RPG structure with champion abilities and progression suggests meaningful build variation and party composition decisions.
How it looks and sounds
Beautiful art direction with fan-favorite champion designs suggests expressive hand-drawn or illustrated character work. Steam tags reference isometric perspective, a common view for turn-based RPGs of this type.
How it's structured
The game is a bounded, authored story arc advancing League of Legends champions' narratives with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Explicitly single-player focused with no multiplayer component. Exploration of Bilgewater and the Shadow Isles as distinct regions suggests discrete explorable areas rather than seamless world.
