Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story Reviews
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 fails to be an engaging puzzle-platformer and fails to deliver an emotional, heartfelt story about a child and his Yeti best friend. Considering the performance woes when playing the Switch version, too, this is a song best left unheard.
Tequila Works' latest skates by with just enough nuance & personality to keep engagement from freezing over, but its derivative qualities could tempt some into giving it the cold shoulder.
Inspired by Pixar/Disney films, The Last Guardian or even Ico productions, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story is a very satisfying game, endowed with a pleasant campaign, a journey made in measures between a human and a Yeti. It doesn't reach the magnitude and depth in gameplay of the productions it is inspired by, but Tequila Works has here a work worthy of being played and experienced by those who want to enjoy an adventure that is also a sum of puzzles, combats and platform passages.

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.
A simple game that helps you relax with its soothing music and eye-pleasing graphics. Riot Games has connected the game with its vast universe, providing both veteran and new players with a unique experience alongside the champions of the Runeterra world.

A new League of Legends spin-off that tells a story of friendship through well-established gameplay but lacking any particular creative flourishes. The most "Disney-esque" of Riot Forge's products to date, it is a game unsuited to discerning palates or experienced players, but it can become an excellent pastime for younger audiences or for those who crave something well-told but undemanding.

"Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story" aims to provide a more relaxed experience for its target audience. I believe this audience is much younger, considering the difficulty and simplicity of the game, as well as the complexity of the narrative. However, it does not differ from what is a good adventure with moments of learning, relaxation or some more intense ones. A game that, for lovers of League of Legends and its entire universe, will bring new knowledge about the lore of Nunu & Willump and the Freljord.

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: A League of Legends Story is a very simple game, yet it has a lot of charm thanks to its personal narrative that's easy to relate to. Undoubtedly, the connection between Nunu and Willump is the heart of the adventure. While the puzzles are fun and intriguing, it's regrettable that both the platforming and combat are very monotonous. Depth is noticeably lacking in most of its systems.

Song Of Nunu: A League Of Legends Story is a simple game with excellent storytelling and truly endearing characters. Willump and Nunu's story and adventure will warm your heart even in the icy regions of its setting. It's a cinematic, Pixar-like experience that shouldn't be missed by adventure fans or anyone looking to get a new game for their young kid.
Song of Nunu tells a story with fairy-tale tones: monsters, journeys into the unknown, moments of uncertainty and confrontations with the abyss; thanks to the relationship between Nunu and Willump, brought to life by the developers through effective work inside and (above all) outside the movies, the adventure proceeds finding its own lightness even in the darkest moments.

Song of Nunu is an entertaining game but, at times, falls short in its proposal. Although Tequila's game is interesting, and you can tell that it has been designed with love, it has some gaps that have made it somewhat disappointing.

Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story serves as a great story showing off the characters of the League of Legends series.
While Song of Nunu tells a story set in a pre-established League of Legends universe, players who have never played the MOBA won't be lost in this magical journey. There are some issues throughout the game including glitches and framerate, but the musical score and voice acting is superb. A healthy amount of accessibility options also helps to ensure Song of Nunu shines for all gamers. It won't change the landscape of the League of Legends brand, but it does elevate and diversify, bringing something non-fans and fans alike can enjoy!
Despite the simplicity and linearity of the campaign, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story gets the setting and plot right, mainly due to its captivating characters. The friendship between the protagonists is presented in a charming way, instigating curiosity in the same way that the energetic boy is attracted to adventures throughout the game.
