It is easy to want to like Simon the Sorcerer Origins at first glance. The artwork is beautiful, and the puzzles are clever and creative. However, Simon sadly comes off as a murder-hobo rather than a charming rogue. Also, while the game's comedy is quite fun in itself, it needs more palate cleansers. As is, this feels like a six-hour-long slapstick show, a genre best served in 30-minute portions.

The story of Simon the Sorcerer Origins is ideal for Simon's return to gaming today, offering something very different from the crowd, plenty of nostalgia, and relaxation.

The cult adventure series Simon the Sorcerer is back! But is there anything to get excited about? Not really. This bland, unsalted adventure game won't even make a dog bark in a few months.

Simon the Sorcerer Origins is a rare, complete alignment of concept, craft, and heart; a flawless prequel that honours its legacy while confidently reinventing it for today. Every element works in concert: the hand‑drawn animation sings with personality, the writing lands with relentless wit and unexpected tenderness, puzzles are clever without ever feeling cruel, and the audio elevates moments from amusing to unforgettable. This is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake; it’s a full‑blooded reinvention that keeps the soul of the original intact while offering modern players something genuinely new.
