Runika: A World of Little Legends changes
Dear Little Legends Community,
The year is coming to an end and I have a big pre-Christmas present for you! With this update, the first three bosses in the game world have finally been completed. This is also accompanied by a considerable progress in the story. As always, many other things are also included in this update. Hence, you can now buy Christmas trees from Sao or fill bottles with milk for baking.
Tari, the Spectaria, now also has one or two little surprises in store, so I hope you enjoy exploring this update. Of course, as always, some things in the world cannot be respawned. I therefore recommend starting a new savegame.
Thank you all very much for your support over the years! ❤️

You will now receive Volgoda's Dark Scales (chest) and the Scale Helmet when you defeat Volgoda.
