Sorcery! 3 Critic Reviews

Sorcery! 3 is easily the biggest and most robust gamebook inkle has produced to date.

Once again, inkle Studios has bested themselves in creating the gold standard for interactive fiction, and causing us all to start wondering when the next chapter will arrive.

Like a great novel, Inkle’s games can steal entire nights of sleep from you as you’re immersed in their text, and Sorcery! 3 is their most potent work to date.

A vast and engaging third chapter that expands brilliantly on the first two.

This is – once again – brilliant fantasy. Hours fly by as you dive into ruins, magic and sword fights while the story is surprising as well as mysterious. Creative storytelling at its best. I am looking forward to the fourth and final installment.

It must be said that there’s some loss of nostalgia in Sorcery! 3, however. It’s an amazing game that you absolutely must play, but it’s much less of a gamebook than similar apps are.

This brilliant mix of old and new sets a fresh benchmark for the genre.

The Sorcery-series offers a solid RPG experience with just words. Developer Inkle modernised the books from 1984 very well, and if you read carefully it will offer you a unique gaming experience.

Quotation Forthcoming.

Sorcery! 3 keeps on delivering some strong storytelling and a fascinating modern take on the old gamebooks we used to love.
