Released in 1984 for DOS, Sorcerer is Infocom at its most mischievous. You play an apprentice wizard who wakes up from a hangover only to find your mentor missing and reality slightly off-kilter — as if the universe itself had too much mead last night. It’s a pure text adventure, filled with clever puzzles, deadly mistakes, and that trademark Infocom humor that makes failure oddly satisfying. The parser is surprisingly forgiving for its age, but the world is anything but. One wrong spell, and poof — you’re toast. Or worse, turned into one. A classic brew of magic, mystery, and frustration in equal measure.
