Title: Simon the sorcerer 4¿?
Post by: Kobold on November 02, 2003, 08:01:28 AM
I dont know if there are too many fans of Simon around here, but anyone knows if its possible a new sequel? The ending of Simon3D has a lot of possibilities, and Sordid is still alive.
I know that i wouldnt be making very much friends here if i say that i liked a lot Simon3D ;D Come on, accept it, it was a very good game with the feeling of the other two games, the keyboard control and the arcade mini-games were a bit annoying, but it is Simon anyway and it has some very good puzzles :)
Resuming do you see a possible new Simon sequel? And what are your thoughts on Simon3D (If you've played it) ?

I've heard various opinions on the series, but never played them myself, so I'm afraid I don't have any of my own opinions to offer.

Peace & Luv, Liz

Well, the first Simon the sorcerer game was out in 1994, it was starred by a common teenager (with the ability to irritate everybody who talks to him) who was transported to a fantasy dimension by Calypso (the good wizard) with the purpose of finishing with Sordid (the bad wizard) the series are full of parodies about films, books and videogames, all this with a very fine british humour.
The puzzles look like to Monkey island, but i prefer Simon to Guybrush :)

I highly recommend all of you to give it a try.

The guys who first came up with the series (adventuresoft) made the game about half a mile from where I'm sitting now :D I loved it and the second. I'm scared to play simon 3D in case it ruins the feeling of the first two games....
