I LOVE and HATE this game. I knew it was a grinding game from reading reviews before purchase but it is MORE grindy than you think. 60% of the game play is running around the complex map, 20% is trying to figure out what you have to do (game does poor job of navigation so it's mostly searching google), 15% is watching story line (not much of League lore btw) and 5% is appreciating its art and music.

If this game's volume was halved along with the price, I think it would've been a good game. Seriously, it feels like the game is DRAGGING the play time. THERE IS SO MUCH UNNECESSARY CRAFTING AND MATERIAL COLLECTING. I really loved the pixel graphics and cuteness of yordles so I wish I can give neutral review in Steam but since I can't this is what it gets.

To say this was a good game would be an understatement. This game is a testament that Riot for years has been sitting on lots of potential, but refused to act upon it, instead working on another game that barely got them anywhere. For years I've loved the yordles due to their natural ability to be social, to be friends and to despite all odds, be able to live among each other without the human concepts that would ruin the whole yordle society.

Humanity needs to learn from this game that we could had been better. But sadly, a pipe dream that will never be accomplished. With years wishing to see and wonder the life of these adorable happy creatures, I finally found a game I can truly call home. A game that gives me joy and wonder. To go beyond the miniscule requirements for achievements.

Just wish this game had more, or even a modding option. But with Riot Forge dead, this is as far as we'll get.

So if you want several hours of peace in crafting, look no further than this game. I actually was able to smile for the first time in years, playing this game.
