RuneScape Legends where you can also register your username before anyone else takes it. Stay tuned with our website to be informed about the latest updates on the mobile version of this title. You can check the first gameplay for this game below. Block N Load keeps things very simple: it’s a 5v5 shooter where players choose from a handful of distinct characters to engage in an attack/defend game mode. Each team has a main cube they must protect, and smaller cubes that provide shields for it. Through teamwork, they must both defend their own cubes and bring down the enemy’s.
If you know nothing about Chronicle, the first thing you need to know is that it's definitely a different animal than the likes of Hearthstone. You have a character that goes through quests each turn before clashing with the opponent. The battles take place in a 3D environment, and you get to play a number of cards in a row (cards that buff your character, spawn enemies, etc) without your opponent seeing what you're playing. Then you both unveil the cards you've played, and each character fights, gets buffed, or whatever else the cards allow.
We dug deeper into a number of topics, such as the recently announced Dungeoneering mode for drafting play, and a new Campaign single player mode that will arrive later in beta. We also took a closer look at character customisation, and just why you’ll want to have a character that personifies your unique approach to the game. Card games seem to be everywhere right now, from the behemoths of the collectible card game genre like Hearthstone to the skeuomorphic notion of opening packs of cards in games like FIFA. Chronicle: RuneScape Legends sits somewhere between these two, fully justifying Jagex’ assertion that this is different to other CCGs. It really is more than lip service.
In fact, I’d hesitate to bundle it in with the rest of the CCG genre, as to me it feels like more like a board game. Take a turn in Hearthstone and you’ll be using mana points to play cards from your hand, directing your minions in play to attack the opposing cards, and ultimately try to deal damage directly to your opponent. Chronicle, turns this on its head, so that instead of battling your opponent directly, your hero is adventuring and fighting against the cards in your own deck.
I just wanted to talk a bit about my experience with Chronicle so far. I'm a long time Runescape fan and I still play it every now and then to this day. So when I caught wind of them wanting to make a card game based in the crazy vast universe of Runescape I was super happy. I'm also heavily into card games and was hoping for a long while for some new games to come along to break the norm a bit. But then I got access to Chronicle a day ago, played the tutorial and then I proceeded to play a ton of matches that day and even losing those matches I just had a blast.
The similarities with most other card games pretty much end by the cards. The gameplay is severely different and it's great! There's a lot of risk & reward in duels and it makes for very entertaining matches. The open beta announcement came more or less on schedule, which is a good sign in terms of the game's development rate. So, hopefully the game will come out soon on PC so the developers can focus on getting it our on mobile.
