Simon says
User Rating: 8.6 | Simon the Sorcerer PC
This is a nice cosy little adventure. I was playing it from cd-rom on my brand new 468 computer and it worked wonderful. It was a point and click adventure with full speech! It was nicely drawn and you could move Simon around by clicking on the screen. He could do all kinds of things by clicking on an order and then on a object on the screen, you only needed a mouse. Simon, the Harry-Potter-avant-la-lettre-kind-of-teenager, would politely say things as "I don't understand" or "That won't work" as i tried to solve the game's puzzles. Simon has to rescue the magician Calypso from the evil wizard Sordid at the fiery pits of Rondor so he can return home. On his journey he meets many people, woodworms and swamplings. The humor in this game is great. It was followed up by Simon the sorcerer 2: the lion, the witch and the wardrobe and a Simon the sorcerer 3d, which is 3d. There are plans for a part 4 to be released later this year.
