    Combat is fast and fluid in The Mageseekers, almost too fast for its own good. While Sylas can dash around levels and aim spells with the right analog stick, putting to use his whole repertoire of moves can be difficult when multiple enemies fill the screen. When the action heats up and things are flying around it can be difficult to keep track of Sylas and easy to get hung up on a bit of level geometry which just further upsets things.

    The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is a harrowing combination of unimaginative, tired game design and stale writing. I hate tearing the game down because I believe the developers worked hard on it, but this is a League of Legends game that is going to attract fans of the Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA).

    The pixel art and soundtrack build a beautiful world, while the story--though slow to truly kick off--is riveting once it hits that turning point. There are some issues that hold the experience back, particularly its uneven-level designs and the aforementioned slow start to the story. The fluid combat and incredible boss battles, however, make up for those shortcomings and raise The Mageseeker up to be another effective expansion of the League of Legends lore.

    The storytelling is decent and the cast is quite endearing — but don't go expecting anything too in-depth from The Mageseeker's narrative. Context is dished out across quick conversations between characters, while additional details can be found in scribbled notes, scattered across levels.

    The Mageseeker proves itself to be yet another strong addition to Riot’s growing catalog of intriguing spin-off games. Sylas’s bittersweet quest supplies a compelling story that nicely complements the fast-paced combat and magic-stealing action, providing fans with an enjoyable action experience that fans of 2D action games will want to take note of.
