Insanely creative “Choose your own Adventure” kind of mobile game, where I was scared that the phone limitations would result in Sorcery’s gameplay crying to be put onto something else, but instead it all really shined. It came off like reading and playing with a book you could actually interact with - it was perfect! The combat especially, which had a really creative and thought-provoking battle structure. The entire game really makes you sit and think each decision you make, while at the same time being kind enough to allow you to rewind if you really fucked yourself.

The only thing that pissed me off about Sorcery was how I finally got to the final destination and was told I had to go buy the second game to finish it! I was so invested too! Like come on, we were RIGHT THERE, MAN!!!

But besides that, Sorcery was an absolute treat to play with lots of replayability in deciding different ways to reach (or fail to reach) your goal. I really would rate this higher if not for the ending essentially being behind a paywall.

4/5
