Hear from the Players – Open Sorcery Reviews

Find out what gamers are saying about Open Sorcery:

In this text-based RPG, you play as a combination firewall/fire elemental, protecting a few people and places from magical and technological threats. If you’re like us, that’s enough to try it out, and if you do you won’t be disappointed. It’s short-ish and linear, but there are so many things to learn and try it has good replayability. We’re very looking forward to Open Sorcery 2.


Not only was this game incredibly moving and intuitive, but the game was just straight up fun. Everybody should buy this game. You there! You reading this right now! Buy this game! Do it!


A very fun and creative game, really enjoyed it.


Learned about Open Sorcery at PAX East. If you’re a fan of choose your own adventure stories and the thematic content being presented here, you’re in for a nice little ride.


This game is really fun and has a large variety of different paths one can take, which provides a lot of replay value. However, the save and achievement systems are completely broken. Every time we restart the app, all our saves are missing, and when we try to save on slot 5, it reloads slot 4 instead. Achievements disappear when we restart the app too. When these issues are addressed, this will be a five star game. As it stands, you need to play all the way through in one sitting.


An absolutely glorious game. Out of all of the games like this we have played, this is definitely in our top three.


We actually to the time to sit and replayed to get all the ending (which no game ever made us feel like doing that)


We saw Open Sorcery at PAX and marked it on our "play later" list. We wish I’d picked it up sooner! We just stayed up way too late to finish it. Worth every penny.


We cannot recommend this enough. The writing is evocative, the story is engrossing, and we couldn’t stop thinking about it for days after playing through a couple of times. This update also fixes the lag that made the 1st version frustrating towards the end, so it’s well-deserving of a 5 rating.


Heard about this game from a podcast about how they played it at PAX, so we decided to try it for myself. Far exceeds our expectations. Worth the price.


We stumbled on this game just randomly browsing yesterday and we just couldnt put it down! We love how it takes such a simple concept and turns it into something introspective and emotionally impactful. It probably helps that Im a software developer so a lot of inside jokes related to software development tickled us. But, that humor isnt entirely required to follow the story and we think anyone could follow the game quite easily. HIGHLY recommend you give it a try :)


This game took our breath away. Theres a sense of a fearless imagination behind this thats amazing and exciting. Cant wait to see what else shes working on.


It’s a nice short story game with real emotional weight to it. We care about every character. The story is rich and there is a lot of replay value. The only app we’ve bought that was actually worth the 3 bucks we spent on it.


A delightful gem. We can’t believe we haven’t heard of this before. Buy!


Saw this game at PAX West this year and after playing it we just have to say it’s simply fantastic. The concept is unique and well implemented, and there’s an amazing emotional depth that is quite surprising for a text based game. Very replay-able too! Amazing work.


This game is amazing, it moved us to tears. Please make more of this art. Worth the $3 and more.


Just when you start to think the App Store has become a boring morass of freemium clones, along comes a blinding original, brilliant game like Open Sorcery. The setting is fantastically crafted, the characters are compelling and the story is fascinating. The prose ranges from hilarious to philosophical to emotionally riveting while retaining a singular voice. But don’t think Open Sorcery isn’t interactive – the strategy/gameplay elements work beautifully. Thought provoking, distinctive, amazingly fun… Can’t recommend it enough!
