"The Elder Scrolls: Legends" would be a nice game for avid fans of the franchise. It is a collectible card video game where players can compete in turn-based matches against fellow players or a computer AI. As the title suggests, cards bear familiar characters that were introduced into the franchise over the years.
With the said game mechanics, players will embark on a story featuring the protagonist and an elf called Naarifin, aka "The Forgotten Hero." Naarifin's aim is to reach the White-Gold Tower.
Since its earlier release last month, "The Elder Scrolls: Legends" has by far gathered an overall score of 80 from aggregated reviews on Metacritic. While some think the collectible card game have room for improvement in the visual area, the comments positively point to its wide variety of game modes.
"The Elder Scrolls: Legends" has three main game modes. The more common Battle mode will have players and their decks go up against opponents that they will get from matchmaking, a computer AI and even their personal friends.
The Arena mode will feature randomly picked cards by the system where players need to arrange a deck that they think is strong enough to tackle opponents. Lastly, the Story mode is where players will make decisions for Naarifin until he reaches his ultimate goal.
