Magician Lord was essentially “a launch title for both the Neo-Geo MVS (arcade) and AES (home) systems, and was one of the pack-in games for the Neo-Geo AES.” ScrewAttack takes a look back at this title after the break.
The gameplay is typical to a standard action-platformer fitted for arcade machines and thus very challenging. Aside from the fantasy themes there’s an added twist of transformations that make the wizard more powerful and grants him new attacks.
