Not by myself, I hasten to add, I'm in a team of about 20. It's been nearly two years in the making, and I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. We went into Open Beta on the 23rd March, and after a bit of firefighting we're now fairly stable, so now seems like a good time to tell you guys about it. It's Windows-only at the moment, other platforms will come in time.
It's a card game spinoff of RuneScape. Whenever I say this, the inevitable question is 'so, it's like Hearthstone?', to which the answer, happily, is no. It's 1-on-1 PvP, but you're building a deck with which you construct a quest for your character ("Legend", hence the game's title). So you put a big dragon in your deck not to stomp on your opponent, but because you want your legend to fight it because there's some benefit to defeating it - a buff, a weapon, some gold to spend on Support cards. Each round you place up to four cards, and your opponent does the same, and once you've both submitted your turns, you begin resolving cards in turn. This is where a lot of the strategy lies - as well as trying to build up my own legend, I can play cards to mess up your turn by buffing the creatures you're fighting, or stealing your gold, or breaking your weapon. Assuming both players survive five rounds of this, the two legends then have a fight to the death, so tanking your way to the end and then repeatedly hitting your opponent in the face is a potential tactic.
It's a free-to-play game with, as you might expect, the ability to buy card packs for cash as well as earning them through play.
