Quality Looks!

It has been well chronicled that the game has a number of stops and starts but throughout development the quality and entertainment value has been unsurpassed with animation, hand drawn artwork and music created by a professional team whose work has been seen via a number of Disney, Netflix projects.

Quality Music and Voice Overs!

Dialogue comes in two languages by iconic actors (Chris Barrie - English and Erik Borner - Deutsch) plus localisation in 11 languages gives it worldwide appeal!

 

Composer Mason Fisher, celebrated for his work on Eye of the Beholder, Age of Wonders, F.E.A.R, Extraction Point, etc., contributes the backing soundtrack to the game, as well as the HUGE pop hitmaker and chart topper Rick Astley.

Quality Story Line

Set in April 1993, a few weeks before the events of the first episodes released 30 years ago...... SMALLTHING Studios, the developer, spent years researching and creating the storyline with the assistance and input from Simon Woodroffe (along with his father Mike), who was the lead creator and designer of the original Simon The Sorcerer series back in the 90s that were HUGE hits. Attention to detail, character analysation, attention to settings have all been researched to bring everything to life as you will see in the latest video creation!

Humour, sarcasm and a challenge was always the essence of a Simon the Sorcerer tale and Simon The Sorcerer ORIGINS has it in shed loads!
