    Legends of Runeterra is a digital card game that's somehow both accessible and complex in equal measure. It makes smart use of the League of Legends universe while still being approachable for newcomers, and is the rare example of free-to-play done right. If you've been looking for a card game to sink your teeth into, Legends of Runeterra is an easy recommendation.

    Legends of Runeterra is the CCG that I’ve been waiting for. Instead of relying on League of Legends franchise, it builds off of it, which allows it to stand out in the sea of other games available. The unique match layout and simplistic card presentation make this the perfect entry point in the genre, but I’m also waiting to see how the developer builds on this success with balance updates and support.

    Riot Games did a great job with its new game and giving players the real competitor of Hearthstone.

    Legends of Runeterra might be the best deck-builder on mobile, but the grind and hard to access champions, leave it falling just short.

Have you heard about me being a Magic nerd ? Did you know, that I don’t know Jack about League of Legends ? All of that being sad, I love this one. Not only the areas are fun to explore, there are some meta decks in close range. Pay to win ? Of course. Possible to have fun without paying ? No doubt ! Lots of different game modes and a couple of events to play ? Yes. Interesting Co-op and versus Modes ? Yes , Yes , Yes. So check it out, if you like CCG and maybe also if you don’t.… Full Review »

I tried LOR because it was suggested in the app store and I thought it wouldn't hurt to try it.

    I was pleasently surprised by the way how you can combine different mechanics and build up towards a crazy finishing move without your opponent noticing anything. It also looks really cool when your champions level up     … Full Review »
