Mechs vs. Minions


60 - 90 Min 2 - 4 Players 2016

Riot Games is the game company behind one of the most popular (if not the most) MOBA (Massive Online Battle Arena) games of our days, League Of Legends.
Players take on the role of these four characters: Corki, Tristana, Heimerdinger and Ziggs, which are called Yordles (species). The game is cooperative and players will have to pilot their newly crafted Mechs against a huge (100 figures contained) army of minions through a story-driven campaign. The campaign contains 10 unique missions, in which new mechanics and components are introduced to the game, giving it a Legacy style flavor.
The main mechanic of the game is programming, similar to the famous RoboRally. Players will draft cards through the game with which they will program the movement and attacks of their Mechs using their individual programming boards that contain six ordered card spaces. One unique aspect of the game that creates a great deal of replay value is that you may place up to two more cards upon a card, upgrading it with each extra card for a more powerful effect!

The most exciting aspect of the game, apart from the gameplay itself, is its component quality. Riot Games paid attention to every single detail and component of this game, from its mindboggling box insert to the beautifully painted miniatures and metal trackers!
