Review by Underdogs:

Another underrated released from premier action house Raven Software (most famous for Hexen and Heretic), Mageslayer is an excellent hack 'n slash-fest that rejuvenates the overhead dungeon hack genre pioneered by Atari's Gauntlet over a decade ago. As is typical for this kind of game, the plot is negligible: a cliché premise involving an evil mage named Thane who is planning to take over the universe. It's the gameplay that matters, and Mageslayer delivers in spades. Just choose one of four character classes - the hammer-wielding Earthlord, the hell-spawned Arch-Demon, the fireball-slingin' Warlock, and the busty Inquisitor, and go at it.
