In a world full of competitive, tough, or violent games, ever so often there comes a breath of fresh air in the form of lighthearted narrative-driven adventures. Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story<\/strong> is one such title from developer Tequila Works and Publisher Riot Forge that aims to take you to a magical land filled with various unique characters and creatures, hoping to immerse you in an emotional story that tugs at your heartstrings. Does it succeed at what it set out to do? Here’s my Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story review, tested on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, and PC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we get into the review, though, let me talk about the elephant (or Yeti?) in the room. Do you need to play League of Legends or know about the series before playing Song of Nunu?<\/strong> While Nunu and Willump (the Boy and his Yeti) are champions in LoL and you will<\/em> enjoy the spin-off more if you already know about them, it is not mandatory to do so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I haven’t played League in a long time but it did not affect my experience in this game. Song of Nunu has woven the story in such a way that even those who haven’t dipped their toes in League can still feel the connection with Nunu and Willump. I’d say it even made me interested to get back to League of Legends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Story<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Song of Nunu is a story of two best buds, Nunu and Willump<\/strong>, who embark on an adventure across Freljord. Nunu is a little Notai boy who is searching for his mother Layka in this region full of harsh environments as well as terrifying wolves. But he’s not alone – Willump is right there to protect and support him through it all. The way the story unravels keeps you intrigued as you discover more and more secrets about the world they’re in and themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you keep playing, you will stumble upon various story elements that seem to reveal that Nunu is much more than meets the eye. Soon enough, you’ll also discover that the duo is searching for a mysterious artifact <\/strong>– they don’t know if it’s an object, a person, a creature, or something else. But they must find it! It’s a simple story, but one that stays with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The journey, while difficult, is a blast because Nunu is such a cute little character (and voiced brilliantly, might I add) that it’s hard not to root for him immediately<\/em>. Plus, his camaraderie with the playful Willump is a highlight of this game. The snowball fights between them are very amusing because of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
