Simon the Sorcerer is a point and click comedic adventure game by Adventure Soft. It is the first game in the Simon the Sorcerer series.
Plot
When Simon chases his dog into a spellbook, he ends up in a magical world. Now he has to journey through this magical world, rescue a wizard, and defeat an evil sorcerer.
Releases
On August 6, 2009, iPhSoft released Simon the Sorcerer for the iPhone and iPod touch using ScummVM and James Woodcock's enhanced soundtrack. On February 19, 2010, the program was updated with support for the iPad.
On April 3, 2018, the digital version of Simon the Sorcerer was replaced with Simon the Sorcerer: 25th Anniversary Edition by MojoTouch. It has a custom menu to use alternate sound sources such as MT32 music, or James Woodcock's remake of the music in the game. It also gives an option to have original or high-definition graphics, but the latter simply uses one of the ScummVM graphics filters. Despite using ScummVM, the shortcut key to get back to the ScummVM menu doesn't work. However, ScummVM will detect the game, so it's possible to play the game without using MojoTouch's menu.
