Simon The Sorcerer              Adventure Soft          £40

Who hasn't heard of Simon the Sorcerer?  It has been around on the 1200 for
some time now but has finally graced the CD32, and what can we expect?
Sampled speech and oodles of game play.  The game a point and click graphical
adventure which can only be compared to Monkey Island 2.  This game has
plenty of humour and depth to the game that will have you frustrated for days
or even weeks.  This game has an auto mapping function which helps make the
game more enjoyable to play.  This game is packed with puzzles and quips,
however there are some puzzles that are extremely abstract and may take some
time to figure out.  As for the sound there is the obligatory sound track
through out the game which varies from location to location, but it is the
sampled speech that really blows you away!  This game is really enjoyable to
play.  So is it the same as Monkey Island 2? No way! This is one large adventure
that will keep you happy for weeks.
