Simon the Sorcerer is one of those classic point-and-click adventures that feels like it snuck out of the LucasArts vault—except it’s got this very British sense of humor. You play as Simon, a kid who accidentally yeets a magic book, gets sucked into a fantasy world, and immediately has to outsmart goblins who want to turn him into dinner. The tone’s somewhere between Monty Python and Monkey Island, with dialogue options that are mostly there to make you laugh (like arguing with a sentient door about whether it’s technically a door or a gate).

The puzzles are what you’d expect—collect weird junk, combine it in weirder ways, and occasionally realize you’ve been carrying the solution in your pocket for an hour. But what I love is how the game never punishes you for clicking around. No dead ends, no unwinnable states, just a map that remembers important spots so you’re not backtracking forever. Also, Simon knows he’s in a game, which leads to some great fourth-wall moments when he complains about pixel-hunting or the absurdity of adventure game logic.

If you’ve ever wanted to trade insults with a troll or trick a dragon with fake treasure, this is your kind of adventure.
