What it is
King's Bounty: Legions is a turn-based online strategy game from Nival, released in 2011. It places players in a fantasy world of magic, creatures, and monsters, where they build a hero and army, improve troops, and learn spells. Battles can be against friends, other players, or groups of creatures; PvP uses automatic opponent selection to match players with an equal opponent. Players can join or create a clan, reinforce their garrison, and attack others. Quests, resource gathering, and crafting support the campaign, while sieges can provide elements for crafting runes that strengthen an army. Combat calls for planning around spell duration and cooldowns, and randomly generated battlefield obstacles affect encounters. Steam lists single-player, multiplayer, cross-platform multiplayer, and Family Sharing. Its Steam genres include Free To Play, Massively Multiplayer, RPG, and Strategy, and its listed platform is Windows.
