Simon the Sorcerer

Simon the Sorcerer is a point-and-click adventure where you play a teenager yanked into a fantasy realm after his dog jumps through a magical portal. Your goal: rescue a wizard named Calypso from an evil sorcerer called Sordid. The game leans heavily on fairy tale parodies—you'll encounter riffs on Rapunzel, Jack and the Beanstalk, and others twisted into puzzle scenarios. Expect inventory-based problem solving and dialogue trees typical of early '90s adventure design. The humor skews British and irreverent, poking fun at fantasy tropes rather than playing them straight. If you've got patience for pixel-hunting and enjoy comedy that lampoons genre conventions, this delivers that classic LucasArts-era structure with a sharper tongue.
