A sequel to Simon the Sorcerer, this second game in the series gives us more mis-adventures from our teenaged sorcerer (of some sort). Thrown into another dimension by his own wardrobe, Simon starts the heroic mission (of some sort) to find -another wardrobe that could get him back home. Equipped with his pointy sorcerer's hat (of some sort), he will also rescue the world (again) from the evil Sordid. It's a point-and-click adventure in a style similar to the first Simon game, only technologically improved. The two games in the series are of the most charming low-profile games ever that have captured many an adventurer's heart. It has difficult but fair puzzles, witty dialogues, and inimitable self-effacing humor and charm. A couple of things are new: the word commands (like 'talk to' and 'look at') have been replaced by Icons (a Magnifying Glass and a Mouth), and some scenes can be scrolled now, so make sure you always check the edges of every screen for new locations. In April/2018, a 25th Anniversary Edition was released with: Totally new, much praised, game play controls that were built from the ground up; * Hotspot based - no more pixel hunting; All-new slick icons and animations; Quick actions using right-click; Completely new game menus and save/load system; Three Music options - music score in MT-32, General MIDI or AdLib; A stunning new HD graphic mode that up-scales the game beautifully to high-resolutions; Optional retro settings - play with original graphics, original music and even the original controls (mouse pointer). | ||
