#Simon the sorcerer 2 original full

The dialogue audio is sometimes stuffy, and can barely be heard over the music. There were a few things that could have been improved, though. 'Not everyone bought the first game you know!' The environments are also much more easily accessed, being the ideal size, so thereвЂ™s no more useless backtracking or screens anymore. At one point during the game, Simon will even stop a character in mid-speech to fill in the gamer. Since the game is a sequel, there are many comical references to the previous title: but the developers kept this in mind. This is immensely helpful when you canвЂ™t always hear whatвЂ™s going on in the game or there are numerous noisy distractions around you. Most enjoyable feature-wise was the fact that subtitles can be switched on or off at any time during the game. Looking at icons instead of text commands made the control panel area appear less cluttered and distracting, which was a very nice touch. The game makes numerous references to existing fairy tales, offering both a familiar and funny environment that makes you feel less foreign to the world in the game. The humor is just as good as it was in the first game, with Simon displaying that classically cynical and sarcastic persona. ItвЂ™s not hard to point out what was likable about Simon the Sorcerer II, because there were likable things around every corner. Simon the Sorcerer II features two separate world maps and over 17 separate inner-world locations. Last but not least, this game features the ability to switch music, sound effects, speech, and subtitles on or off at any time during the game. Tasks can be accomplished and items acquired in different orders, making each playerвЂ™s experience a little different. It is important to note that Simon is an open-ended adventure, meaning that there is no one linear way to do things. Among them are options such as to be very linear with the storyline in regards to dialogue, or completely off the wall and comical, sometimes even downright mean. This makes moving around in the game much easier and more enjoyable.Дialogue is also an interactive activity: Simon can choose from multiple possible responses, allowing a huge array of possibilities. A map system has also been implemented so that whenever Simon leaves a particular area or scene, heвЂ™s automatically taken to a world map where you can warp to your next destination. The game also features screens that can pan across while Simon walks, allowing easier access of an area without having to walk through so many screens. Simon carries a limitless inventory with him, allowing him to hold and store items for later use. To move Simon, one simply clicks on the part of the screen theyвЂ™d like to move him to. The player would click 'Use' and then 'key', and then click on the object theyвЂ™d like to use it on, such as a door. Commands include Move, Look at, Open/Close, Pick up, Talk, Wear, Use, and Give. Players must click the corresponding command icon, and then the object theyвЂ™d like to interact with to continue in the story. On the main screen at all times (with the exception of cutscenes and dialogue) is a panel with eight command icons. Simon the Sorcerer II, like its predecessor, is a mouse-driven point and click adventure. Irritated and confused, Simon embarks on an adventure to find a way to get back home.

Upon a mysterious wardrobe appearing in his room and him entering, he finds himself once again flung back into the realm of Calypso and Sordid.

Simon, having attended therapy for his experience in the previous game, is now older and more full of himself than ever. Unknowingly, this summons SordidвЂ™s ghost, who appoints Runt as his new apprentice and charges him with the task of bringing him back to life to take revenge on Simon. When his father finds out, he burns it and throws it onto a pentagram on the floor. The game begins with a young boy named Runt, who has purchased the deceased SordidвЂ™s Spell Book. Transported back to the dreaded fantasy world of the first game by the evil sorcerer Sordid, Simon must find his way back home while dealing with rights-activist Woodworm, witches, wizards and pirates, all while wading through Almost-Banana flavored Swamp Shake. The sequel to the original 1993 title Simon the Sorcerer, Simon the Sorcerer II continues the story of our young wizard full of attitude.
