Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story Reviews
Whether you’re familiar with League of Legends of not, this “boy and his beast” platforming adventure is a good time
Due to predictable story beats, odd gameplay design choices, and not allowing players to master most of the various mechanics in the game before the end credits roll, it’s hard to recommend Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story to anyone who isn’t already a fan of the source material.
Song of Nunu makes for a rather underwhelming experience with uninspired gameplay and middling visuals, but if you're looking for an adventure with your favourite Freljordian heroes, then Song of Nunu is a game that exists.
Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story is a gaming masterpiece, a work of art that captivates from the very beginning, excelling in both storytelling and game design. Tequila Works, known for their exceptional storytelling in RiME, collaborates with Riot Forge to bring forth an unforgettable adventure set in the frozen expanse of the Freljord. This collaboration results in an enchanting and emotionally resonant experience that should be on the radar of anyone who appreciates rich, immersive narratives.
Although Song of Nunu lacks depth, it picks up on the charm of the character interactions and weaves a simple but interesting story that will keep you hooked right to the end. It's great fun to play from start to finish. With a lifespan of around ten hours and little replayability, the game is still worth playing if you're looking for a cozy experience or a game to play with your younger ones.

Song of Nunu will certainly be a fun and cosy adventure for players looking to get started with League of Legends, veterans of the series excited to see the story expanded, or a younger audience looking to experience a family-friendly platformer.
While not exactly as action-packed and detailed as the last two Riot Forge games, Song of Nunu deserves some accolade for being a little different in its 3D platforming and all-ages approach. Familiar? Yes, but not unwelcome in the slightest. Even the most icy of hearts will start melting and feel warm and fuzzy inside if they persevere in this affordable and solidly put-together adventure starring a boy and his magic four-armed yeti.
Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story may not be the biggest release of this winter, but it surely is one to keep an eye on. With its heartwarming story and characters "Song of Nunu" delivers solid platformer-gameplay along with interesting puzzles.

Layka taught me that a song never dies; similarly, Song of Nunu is a game that will undoubtedly live on in the memories of those who play it. Fans of League’s lore are in for an epic continuation of several beloved champion’s stories, and a heartwarming adventure awaits fans and newcomers alike. Song of Nunu is without a doubt worth your time, with interesting puzzles, great characters and a fantastic pace that keeps the game rolling.
Song of Nunu is a wholesome adventure that follows two beloved characters from the League of Legends universe as they venture through the icy lands of Freljord. Its charming presentation, excellent voice-acting, and accessible platforming mechanics add up to an adventure worth taking. Despite the mediocre combat, Song of Nunu is a wonderful experience that's immersive and expands on the League of Legends lore in a meaningful way.
From the beautiful presentation to the fun coming-of-age story, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story is easily one of Tequila Works’ best. Fans of League of Legends have had their hands full with Riot Forge’s other releases and they can have another helpful serving of a fantastic adventure game.
