I’m a big fan of point-and-click adventure games, but this one never crossed my radar in the US back in the day. I played it thru on iOS. The interface yields itself perfectly to the touch screen. The graphics are superb. The puzzles are challenging but manageable. The story is a little vague and bland.
In reading through other reviews, it sounds as though this wasn’t well received by fans of the original. So I guess if you are nostalgic for the 90s game, just play that instead. But this game is stellar on its own merits.
All these 1 star reviews are really unfounded, it's a great game whether the remaster features suck or not. I have the android version of this one and it contains the original graphics version along with all the added features, so you still have the fall back if you don't want the new stuff. Even with the updates it still plays through the game fine. There's nothing game-breaking with this.
I don't really care for the smoothed graphics because you lose a lot of the original detail, but sometimes it's nice to not look at pixelated graphics. This is very similar to the remastered Monkey Island games. The best feature is the hotspot identifier, though it's a bit of a cheat for adventure games. The original version of this game had some very difficult pixel hunt spots to find, so hotspot is nice if you want to beat this without a walkthrough. Being able to listen to all the different music synth versions is really neat because even though they're technically the same, the music sounds different between synths.
If you don't already have Simon the Sorcerer original version, buy this version, it's great for what it is. Otherwise there's not much reason to buy this one other than a couple minor feature adds and proper updated Windows support.
I just had the oportunity to Simon for a few hours back then- but it remembered me a lot of the Lucas Arts games- the humor was spot on :)
In contrast to all the 1 Star reviews- give it 5 Stars... Why ? Because it runs perfectly and you can switch it to pixels instead of the horrible interpolished version.
Why so mad, bros?
I was sad because I had issues with saving the game (or even exit the game), but as the support is saying, you just have to change the parameters to ''Run as Administrator'' and everything works fine. I like the changes visually. For those who likes the older version, I can tell that it comes too with this game. Everybody is happy now! Happy gaming!
Played it when we got out first 66 mhz PC when I a little sh*t, and I'm sorry. I wouldn't buy this simply because of the screenshots of the game. All that cozy brilliant pixelated mastery and charm reduced to smudge. It has, in my eyes, killed the soul of the game. Still a great game ofcourse, and I won't say anything about playability or sound. Sorry for giving a review without playing but seriously ... what the HELL have they done to this game? I'd much rather play it as it was. In a small window surrounded by black to adjust to the old-school resolution or something. Make this right and I'll purchase it in an instant and many others too.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
