    The game is pretty nice but it is not really worth its price. The character is too slow to react, which makes the game-play very frustrating.

    Nice combat, though sometimes you'll have to spam an AA to kill an enemy which is tedious and not having animation cancel in 2023 is never a good thing. But battle mage fantasy is executed very well.

    Story is great, it's pretty simple but it is executed perfectly. All the character are believable and the whole main character development arc as well.

    Pixel art is great, not so good as Blasphemous, but level design is still clean and nice, Boss fights look especially pretty.

    Like the fact that the game allows you to fully upgrade yourself and run a few missions with it.

    Want to specifically point out the J4 and Shivana boss fight, one of the best I've had in many years.

    "Nocturne" boss fight sucks tho. It's just a reskin from a previous boss    … Expand

    Mageseeker provided me a solid 11 hours of nice and very pleasant gameplay. The storyline is not complex, but it make a nice background to understand decision's and process of changing - not only Sylas but all teammates.

    Normal game, but I can say for sure that this genre of games is not for me. The plot is poorly assigned, especially in the beginning. The dialogues are not connected to each other.

    Do not recommend. DLC which you pay extra for cannot access till late-game but some of this dlc is cosmetic only? Bugs throughout game like hooking mechanic hanky requires manual off screen panning of camera.

    El arte y la música del juego son impresionantes. Los gráficos son vibrantes y coloridos, y los personajes están detallados y bien diseñados. La música es cautivadora y se adapta perfectamente al ambiente del juego, aumentando la inmersión en la experiencia.

    La historia del juego es intrigante y bien escrita. Me encantó la manera en que los personajes y la trama se desarrollaban a lo largo del juego. La historia también tiene un montón de giros y sorpresas que mantienen al jugador en constante tensión.

    En general, Mageseeker es un juego fantástico que recomendaría a cualquiera. La combinación de su jugabilidad, su arte y música excepcionales, y su historia bien escrita hacen de este juego una delicia.    … Expand

    Bad-
    Side missions feel a bit too samey and repetitive. Control set-up can feel awkward at times, especially when aiming. Some difficulty spikes. Not very long, especially when sticking to the story.

    Thoughts-
    Overall, it’s an enjoyable experience that eases players into an expansive world with a nuanced protagonist and some interesting, albeit awkward at times, combat. Nothing more, and nothing less. Whether the next League of Legends Story game aspires higher or goes in a completely different direction, The Mageseeker is a strong addition to the Riot Games catalogue.    … Expand

    Um bom jogo, bem divertido e mecânicas únicas para o contexto do jogo, as sides quests são meio repetitivas mas isso não afeta o jogo. Jogo terminado em 13h com 100% de progresso.

    7/10 - Bom sólido.

Lore: I loved the way the game tells the story of Sylas a little better and in more detail, from the small letters and books where we read messages from the most varied types of people to the excellent characters that were brought to us throughout the game, every detail of the game helps to further enrich the universe, bringing more excitement to those who love the amazing world of Runeterra. Strengths: • Easy-to-learn gameplay • Interesting mechanics (specifically chains or shackles) • Variety of combos and powers • Characters • Better perception of the real power of the characters or Champions (something that does not exist in the MOBA League of Legends) • Boss fights are very satisfying and some even insanely good
    • Art • Instrumental / Soundtrack Negative points: • Not having animation cancel in combat (in a fast gameplay like this game it was a must have) • Little variety of enemies • No voice over • Some bugs • Mini quests do not have any impact on the player experience • More expensive version is not worth the purchase • It should be possible for the player to use all the powers when he feels like it Final verdict: It's a good game, I would recommend this game to fans of the genre and especially for those who like and know the world of league of legends, but on the release date the game has some flaws (bugs) and for a new player who doesn't know anything about the world I think this isn’t the best introduction since there are some parts of the story that happened before the events of this game which aren’t even mentioned. The price is ok, but for 30€ we would have asked for a slightly more polished game    … Expand

    The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is an extremely fun and enjoyable game, perfect for both League of Legends fans and newcomers. It stands out as a unique and individual game, and might even attract some people to the famous MOBA, as its beautiful story and charming environments will surely draw the attention of more than one RPG fan. Despite its flaws, its experience is highly recommended since it will only take you about 12 hours to complete it.

    Mageseeker delights with action-packed combat if you can overlook the crude story and some superfluous features.

    The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is a magical RPG with consistent and interconnected mechanics. You will make use of each of the gameplay mechanics that it proposes. Nothing is left over. It is a very balanced installment both on narrative and mechanical levels. The designs are simple, but their fluidity stands out. The difficulty level is enough to keep you entertained without getting too tense. Seeing characters from League of Legends lore repurposed efficiently is fantastic.
