Game setting

League of Angels is a turn-based combat MMORPG where players take on the role of heroes as they fight monsters, save beleaguered angels, collect gold and diamonds (the in-game currency), complete quests, and battle against the forces of evil.

Gameplay

League of Angels is an online multiplayer game in which players collect heroes and angels, level up their strengths, combine the ultimate combinations of fighters and fight through dungeons, bosses and other players in order to obtain gold, diamonds, EXP and many other rewards. There is marriage in the game, but marriage between same sex couples is not permitted.

Heroes

In League of Angels players can unlock dozens of unique heroes with different skills and attributes. Each hero can then be properly equipped, leveled up and have his/her skills improved. Players can then choose which heroes they want to place in their battle formation.

Angels

In addition to using heroes, each battle formation can contain one Angel. Angels can become very powerful when leveled up and will provide crucial support for your battle formation. As with heroes, there are many Angels that can be unlocked by players, each one with unique skills.

Story Mode

The Great Demon King’s army of evil has swarmed through the land. In order to halt his progress and save countless honest citizens, the angels have descended and formed a League in the fight against evil. They have begun to assemble the greatest heroes of all time and will stop at nothing until the Great Demon King is defeated. This League of Angels will not be stopped by any minion, dungeon or boss that the army of evil will throw at them.

Arena Battles

Arena mode is where players can test the strength of their battle formations against other Fire Raiders players from all around the world. Many different kinds of rewards are available for players who rise through the rankings and prove that their battle formation is superior.

Diamonds

Aside from gold, players can also use diamonds as currency. Diamonds can be awarded when reaching certain milestones and completing certain achievements, but the main way to acquire them is to purchase them using real world money. Diamonds can be used to speed up every aspect of the game, from leveling up Angels and Heroes to purchasing better gear as well as more stamina and battle attempts.

Awards

League of Angels was chosen as 2014 best new game on Facebook in December 2014.[4]

Reception

League of Angels has received mixed reviews. It is praised for its art style, strategy, and familiar gameplay mechanics. However, it is also criticized for its frequent usage of money for Diamonds, and its automatic battle system. It also has been criticized for its false advertising, with an ad campaign similar to that of Evony, and for stealing some artwork from other games. It is also said that it steals some music and quotes from games such as World of Warcraft, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and League of Legends. It has also used a short, looping version of the animated video used at the title of Final Fantasy XIV (version 1.0) along with the same musical theme used during the video.
