Description from IGDB IGDB
Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA
Like Airship Syndicate's Battle Chasers: Nightwar, Ruined King A League of Legends Story is presented in a top-down perspective, with players directly navigating a party of characters around the world and through dungeons. As the group travels, they encounter enemies and bosses. When an enemy is encountered, the environment switches to a turn-based battle area in which characters and enemies await their turn to attack. Each of the main characters has a passive and active Dungeon Ability that players can use while traversing the world map, but the group can contain only three characters at one time out of a possible six and only one character can be present on the map at a time, so the player must anticipate which abilities will be useful. Passive abilities will trigger in the right context, while active abilities have a cooldown and will give the player combat advantages when used on enemies. The game will often require the player to select a particular character for story progression or to obtain a rare item: Illaoi, as one of the Buhru people, is the only member of the team who can decipher Buhru text and artifacts, so she is a necessary inclusion for the Buhru Temple. The combat of Ruined King differs from traditional turn-based combat due to a mechanic called the Initiative Bar: it displays a timeline upon which every combatant (there can be up to six, three allies and three enemies) has a position, showing when they will act and sometimes giving information on enemy abilities. Some abilities are Instant, but some have the option to select a Lane of the Bar: Speed, Balance or Power, forcing the player to consider the trade-off between a weaker ability sooner or a stronger one later. Some abilities allow a character to move another character on the Bar, speeding up an ally or knocking back an enemy. Placing abilities in the right order can be important, for example when executing a synergetic combo, interrupting an enemy's ability before they can use it, and when trying to hit Boons or avoid Hazards, areas of the Initiative Bar that can infer bonuses or maluses on any character that lands within them. Some bosses are 'puzzle bosses' that are beaten more by mastery of the Initiative Bar than by damage alone. Each character has three Ultimate abilities that they can unlock over the course of the game. Using an Ultimate requires filling a level gauge and each Ultimate has a level cost; typically each character's ultimates will cost 1, 2 or 3 levels, each stronger than the last. The Ultimate gauge carries over between battles but is shared between party members. The effects Ultimates have can vary greatly depending on the character's role: they can be purely damage-focused, buff or debuff, or even revive fallen allies. The game reuses the Overcharge mechanic from Battle Chasers: Nightwar: during battle, non-magical attacks generate Overcharge that can be used in place of mana. This is useful for dungeons or longer fights in which being economical with mana is a consideration.
