8.5/10 I will preface all of this by saying that I'm a League player, so I do have a decade of nostalia. Always been a lover of the League lore. They also did a great job of re-creating League abilities in ways that make sense in this game, which is fun. This game has really fantastic writing, both in the story and in the character dialogue and development. Even the moments of chatter over the fire while resting has a lot of cool development. The game also has very cool combat. It is turn-based, but it has very interesting features with the "lane" system it uses. I really enjoyed it all game through, trying to balance when to use standard attacks, lane abilities, or ults. I think the Overcharge function is also a very cool addition to this. It allows you to build up some bonus mana so that you're not expending your actual mana. The main negative of the combat was that the enemies started to get a bit repetitive. Towards the end, there are a fair number which are reskinned versions of earlier monsters. I did not mind it too much, as you mostly only need to fight things once each, unless backtracking through zones. The overworld movement is meh. The run feature should be the default, not a toggle. I didn't find it for a while and movement was really slow before that. Overall the game is very good! Honestly, way better than I was expecting.

For the league averse, just ignore that and play this game anyway. Sharing much in common with it's stepbrother predecessor Battlechasers: Nightwar, Ruined King is a fantastic 30-odd hour love letter to turn based RPGs. +Extremely well paced with little filler +Well defined characters where every ability serves a purpose +Strong art design and voice acting -Forgettable story and music (I'm also not deep into LoL lore) -A bit glitchy, experienced a few crashes

Voice acting spectacular, art beautiful, combat pretty good, music incredible. What do you mean we get so many cutscenes that the game was practically a movie? I got the game because.... Ahri and Miss Fortune but you don't even need to know anything about League to play this game. Very addicting to play. You can't get tired of it (except maybe the teleport option and you mostly have to walk a lot).

Riot Forge having been shut down is a real shame. We may never see another standalone experience like Ruined King set within the League of Legends universe. Even if you're a complete newbie, the game brings its characters to life in ways actually greater than the way they've been portrayed in League itself. The dialogue is thoughtful and the visuals really strike a chord, while the turn-based combat is seemingly somewhat trivial yet engaging when playing around with team comps. This title is truly something special and could have deserved a star more.
