What exactly is idle gaming, and how will it all tie back into RuneScape? I sat down and spoke with members of the Jagex and Hyper Hippo development teams to answer those questions. Fans travelled from as far afield as the US and Australia to spend the day at the Tobacco Dock in London to see the unveiling of Chronicle: Runescape Legends and attend presentations on the future of the game, Q&A sessions with the games devs, cosplay competition and a host of other attractions.
The event was also watched online via two official Twitch streams which reached a peak of 16,000 concurrent viewers. The event’s Twitter hashtag was used over 2000 times reaching over 1.7 million people. Runefest 2014 Runescape’s most successful fanfest yet. RuneScape Legends – which is currently a working title – will give players an entirely new way to get involved with the world of Gielinor. Set for release on PC, Mac, tablet, and mobile platforms in 2015, Chronicle: Runescape Legends focuses on quest building, allowing players to craft their own miniature RPGs against enemies, including classic RuneScape boss monsters, before entering into tense PvP combat.
Chronicle: Runescape Legends was initially unveiled at RuneFest this past weekend which was held at London’s Tobacco Dock and allowed players to see first hand what to expect from the title.

When talking about digital collectible card games (CCGs) nowadays, it’s practically guaranteed that four words will come up at least once: “it’s like Hearthstone, but…” – something that developers Jagex must have had at the forefront of their minds when creating their own CCG, Chronicle: RuneScape Legends. So, naturally, they’ve gone and made something completely different.
Okay, not “completely” different. Chronicle still has collectible cards – this is a CCG, after all – and you get them by playing games against AI or real people in practice or ranked challenge matches. You can still buy and open packs of cards – again, CCG – and you can break down extra cards that you don’t need in order to generate resources to create ones you do. In terms of design, the game feels very Hearthstone-y – somewhat cartoony, blocky graphics and the concept that the pieces for the game are all included in a little box or, in this case, a book that you open to play.
Idle games — also called incremental games, clicker games, or clicking games — are games that involve only the simplest of actions (what is simpler than clicking?) for progress. OK, so admittedly that sounds a bit like some MMOs you may have played, so what is the real difference?
