I love Sorcery! I had the pleasure of reading the actual books when I was a kid because my mother collected them when they first came out. Enjoyed every moment. They were so much more in-depth than "Choose Your Own Adventure" books and took a more mature approach to things: the story was intriguing, there was so much to explore and you got to act like an actual adventurer casting spells and battling monsters. It felt like a less complicated, single player D&D campaign. Playing this again on my iPhone has been a blast. I love having more visuals to enjoy while roaming about, while inkle still preserved the great original artwork. The "twist" of being able to change the topography with special items is particularly eye-catching. And of course the writing holds up to this day. This series is a true gem and if youre a fantasy fan you owe it to yourself to see these classics glossed up and presented in such a fun format. Something else to note, Ive always appreciated that you can play an adventurer of either gender and inkle has retained this option. So often youre stuck playing as a male in other (modern!) games yet here a series decades old was bright enough to offer such a simple yet considerate choice.
