Reviews

There are no major issues with Simon the Sorcerer’s prequel story overall. I didn’t encounter a single bug during the three and a half hours I spent with it, it looks pleasing to the eye (while its system requirements are roughly equivalent to two potatoes), and it gave my brain a proper workout. That said, if I had to explain what it offers that would make me pick it off the virtual shelf instead of Old Skies, Elroy and the Aliens, or even the upcoming Syberia remaster, I’d be hard-pressed to come up with a clear answer.
