The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is another compelling spin-off from Riot Forge. Despite some imperfections, it offers fun gameplay, a well-realized world and a likable, if headstrong, protagonist.

The Mageseeker: A League of Legends story is an epic tale with weighty combat. I grew attached to Sylas and was left yearning for more combat and lore.

The Mageseeker has consciously drawn its line. It didn't go overboard, but it made an enjoyable game within the known and familiar boundaries of the hack and slash genre. Not to mention the fact that it answers existing questions instead of further complicating the story of League of Legends.

The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is a great production derived from the franchise full of good hits. As an action RPG, it's dynamic, fast and has a lot of style, even if it suffers from a not always inspired story and a certain aesthetic pollution. The combat diversity guarantee high fun from beginning to end of the campaign.

Even if this project related to Riot Games is a big step forward for the developers, Moonlighter fans will probably think of it as a step back. It's a neat game and its fun mechanics work great, but the gameplay often feels monotonous.

Mageseeker is crafted with care to appeal for the League of Legends fans who are picking up this game to follow Sylas through his past, with an engaging gameplay that just fits his character, but it sadly fell short in terms of the story telling which made the point of this game weaker.

The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is definitely a good action RPG. Once again, it proves that Riot Forge's collaboration with talented developers makes sense, and they can bring stories from the world of League of Legends in a novel way. Still, the levels are often straightforward and would benefit from some additional filler. Because of this, The Mageseeker feels like it hasn't lived up to its full potential.

The Mageseeker is one of those games to create what we call "closet background" in our digital bookstores. An action game with little hints of role-playing, with a simple but effective design, and best of all, it's very, very, very fun.

To say that The Mageseeker is a great surprise would be an understatement in my case. Knowing absolutely nothing about the world of League of Legends, I loved my time with Sylas, so much so that I would be tempted to extend my adventure of this world with other media. Let's face it, it's quite a universe and it's because of games like this and the excellent work of the developer teams that there will always be more followers. An excellent adventure in general that should please many players. Not to be missed if you already like League of Legends, and to be discovered if you don't.

The Mageseeker is definitely a title that could have been great, thanks to the way it expands the Sylas lore in League of Legends. But until a corrective patch comes out to fix the many bugs present, it can't be more than a decent title.

Despite a simple gameplay loop and basic level design, The Mageseeker is a joyous, and addictive game to play. The repetitiveness never wears out the combat, which continues to keep the player fully engaged.

The guys from Digital Sun show us that Moonlighter was not a flash in the pan and with this The Mageseeker they bring us another quite enjoyable product that will also delight lovers of the League of Legends universe. Although those who are not fans of this universe will miss a greater ambition in the project, the truth is that it is a very enjoyable product independently and accessible to all types of audiences.

The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is a great invitation for those who want to know more or simply start their journey through the rich mythological world of Runeterra. With satisfying and exciting combat, this aspect is a good draw for anyone who enjoys action games. It's not formidable, but it shows the quality of Riot Forge's ability to create experiences with different approaches using League of Legends intellectual property.

The Mageseeker is an enjoyable action RPG experience if you're into 2D pixel art, fun-if-simple action mechanics where you take magic & sling it back, and everything in-between. The League of Legends lore expanding of Demacia and its cast are also a treat, but I'm honestly in it for the simple gameplay loop and the challenges it poses along the way. Keep at it with these spin-off bangers, Riot Forge!
