Simon the Sorcerer is a series of point-and-click adventure games created by Adventure Soft. The series follows the adventures of an unwilling hero of the same name. The game has a fantasy setting and is a comedy.

The first two games are often compared with the Monkey Island series in terms of style and humour, and the Terry Pratchett Discworld novels and derivative games.

Both the first and the second episodes are playable with ScummVM.

About Simon

---

Simon the Sorcerer is a teenager from our world. He is transported to that fantasy world as a sorcerer dressed in a cloak and pointy hat; his cloak and hat are purple in the first game, but change to red in the second and third game. He must use his logic and magical skills to solve puzzles as he progresses through the games.

Simon is extremely rude and insults everyone in his way. This tends to interfere with the success of his quests, forcing him to go to ridiculous lengths in order to finish his adventures. Simon breaks the fourth wall with his comments about adventure games.
