PRAISE FOR PART 3

"This is spectacular, a brave and fascinating evolution of what can only just be described as ā€œinteractive fictionā€ at this point. A bold step away from the confines of the source material, and a coherent and completely novel experience." - Rock Paper Shotgun

"Sorcery! 3 is unlike anything youā€™ve ever played. Its mix of puzzle-solving, combat, and choose-your-own-adventure stylings have created a unique form of entertainment that I cannot wait to get back into" - Pocket Tactics, 5/5

"[One] of 2015ā€™s best iPhone games", TIME magazine

"This chapter of Sorcery! 3 does a fantastic job of keeping things dynamic and interesting, and better yet, its new puzzle-like aspect gives it the kind of magical, surprise-filled, combat-related fun fantasy fans live for." - Examiner.com, 5/5

THE STORY

The Crown of Kings has been stolen by the Archmage, and he intends to use it to decimate the Old World. You have been sent, alone, to break into the Citadel of Mampang and get it back. Armed with only a sword, a book of spells, and your wits, you must journey through the mountains, into the Fortress, and locate the Archmage himself. If you are discovered, it will mean certain death - but sometimes even death can be overcome...

From the creators of TIME's Game of the Year 2014, "80 Days", comes the final instalment in the acclaimed Sorcery! series. An interactive story with thousands of choices, all remembered, with no two adventures the same. Part 4 can be played on its own as a complete adventure, or players can load games from Part 3 to continue the narrative where they left off.

Adapted and expanded from the million-selling gamebook series by legendary game designer Steve Jackson, co-founder of Lionhead Studios (with Peter Molyneux) and co-creator of Fighting Fantasy and Games Workshop (with Ian Livingstone).

Using inkle's ink engine, the story is written in real-time around your choices and actions.

Great exploration game, one of the best I ever played! It has great replay value, intelligent puzzles, many different choices, 3 optional companions and more. I got totally obsessed with it while playing! I gotta say that it's more challenging than the first three without the usual rewind feature but discovering the solutions to puzzles felt more rewarding that way.

This could be a great ending UNLESS you catch incurable Trembling Sickness at the start, in which case the entire rest of the game becomes an unpleasant ordeal. It's way harder, and you can't rewind, so you have to play it safe, and end up using walkthroughs because you can't afford to take chances. It's a game breaking design decision and made me hate a series I otherwise loved. My advice: if at any point it says you have Trembling Sickness, just restart the game. You will not have a good time.

Played dead tree gamebook version of this in the 1980s. This is almost completely different, remixed & expanded. Only some touchstones remain. True in Sorcery 3 as well, but 100% win there & here it was a mixed bag. Issues: -Loss of Libra was way less painful in original; first time video game is harsher than gamebook. -Disguise system is a little thin. -Lots of time spent in aimless wandering. -Unlike the previous games, I had to look up solutions a lot. *While bit of a letdown, still amazing!
