Reception
Magician Lord has received mixed reactions amongst critics, and gamers alike. On release, Famicom Tsūshin scored the Neo Geo version of the game an 18 out of 40. Many gamers praised the game for its impressive graphics at the time of its release; yet some critics have said that the game was unfairly difficult. It was a success at Arcades; but it was average for the Neo Geo home system. In 1995, Magician Lord was supposed to have a sequel; however it was cancelled during the development along with Crystalis II.

—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
