    Game is really gun.But if only it had autosave function, it would be perfect! Game claims to have auto-save feature. But ytou may load a save point which is for 1 hour ago and you have won 5 fights and finished a few side quest and yet no saving in sight!

    UI is a mess, mouse+keyboard doesn't work well, key rebinding is very flawed (can't rebind for fishing), combat is boring, alt+tab pauses the game, exploration is dull and there's too much backtracking and very limited quick travel

    I love turn based games and this one had a huge amount of promise. Its could have been great but instead settles for mediocrity. Don't get me wrong, the graphics are well done but it takes more than that to make a good game. The UI is pretty bad. This makes every battle frustrating. Even moving through the battle and standard interface is a chore. The worst thing by far though, are theI love turn based games and this one had a huge amount of promise.

This makes every battle frustrating. Even moving through the battle and standard interface is a chore. The worst thing by far though, are the characters. apart from one or two, these are the most poorly written and two dimensional characters I've seen in a while. They are stereotyped and cringe worthy. One female character is muscle bound behemoth and you're forced to play with them early on. You have no strong main character, instead you have to play through multiple characters which loses the sense of progression and character building. I'd like a sequel to this game that's made right with an awesome main character or allowing the user to at least customize or create their own.… Expand

    The Ruined King is varied enough that it kept me entertained throughout the majority of my playthrough, but combat fatigue eventually left me feeling a little exhausted by the end of it. While the story is fairly simplistic, the charming characters, mixed with the sublime art style, made it a fun jaunt overall. If you are a fan of League of Legends and turn-based RPGs, then this is the game for you. Otherwise, I’d recommend waiting until this goes on sale before picking it up for yourself.

    Apart from a slight repetition in fights and non-animated film scenes, there is nothing to complain about. A famous piece from the world of League of Legends. More like these!

    The visual part of the game is quite delightful. The aesthetics perfectly convey the atmosphere of Bilgewater and the mysterious Shadow Isles. The background art gives the feeling of the scale of what is happening around our heroes as opposed to running through the same old corridor.
