Sorcery! 4

Once again, the developers find ways to innovate and entertain by driving a deep interactive experience with a fascinating storyline. This might be the best one of the four!

Punishing repetition. Games are supposed to be fun or at least compelling. Going through the paces over and over again is neither. I’ll read a walkthrough to find out about the possible endings.

I played the first two games when they came out for free, and when then I waited hoping the third to be free as well, but oh well I love playing them because they're a choose your own adventure stories almost

I went over the four apps in my review of the first book, I’ll just add a few things. This is even more complex, tricky and fun than the previous work. Having the rewind feature disabled is a questionable choice. I understand it is frustrating. I would have given the choice to the player, between perhaps a beginner/weakling mode where rewinding is still possible and the full adventure as it is now. Or by giving the player the incentive to give up the rewinding. Or by giving a limited number of rewinds, etc. In the game books, after all, whether the rules forbade it or not, you coud always go back to the previous chapter or to the previous intersection. If you put that reservation aside, the app is again one of the best games out there and the whole series deserves high praise and success.

I agree with another reviewer, make it an option to not have, but don’t make this great series of games into a frustrating ordeal. Please, please bring the rewind function back for this game!

Don't listen to the 1, 2, 3, or even 4 stars. This is the best game I have ever played. The adventure and action mixed with the design is incredible. I have played and completed this game series twice already. However, get the bundle of the sworcery! games or it won't make sense. The description has a quote saying one of the best RPGs on a Appstore. No, it IS the best RPG on the Appstore.

This series has become one of my favorites in such a short time I love the characters the story the action the play style the open format I love every thing about it I love this game

I loved this series. LOVED it! Until this one. Removing the rewind function, that the previous entries were built around and that facilitated the joy of exploration and experimentation, was unnecessary and poorly executed. Compensating with a "hard reset" that sends you back to virtually the beginning of the story, and unlike sorcery!2 doesn't let you choose a reset point, forces you into a decision making process of simply "which option lets me NOT die so I don't have to redo the entire story". It's not enjoyable at all. Most in depth reviews point out this "repetition" as a negative, but still give it a good score. Yes it is a quality product, just not fun.

A terrible finale that betrays the very foundation that made the series great. It is advertised from the very beginning that "no decision is permanent" but that quickly turns out to no longer be the case. I can understand that they were trying to do something interesting but all it did was cause endless frustration that made me quit playing the game. Didn't bother finishing it and uninstalled, choosing to watch a stream instead. Was far more enjoyable than this waste of money.

After going through this last final adventure... oh, what am I saying? You never get everything right the first time through with Sorcery! - and that's part of the fun! The story is more intense than ever, new gameplay elements once again appear to help or hinder you, and it all blends together into a worthy finisher to the Sorcery! series of mobile games. (these were books, apparently; perhaps that's why this is so good?) If you haven't played the first three, I would highly recommend playing them first. Stay far away from your journey's end until you've taken the journey first. And one final note: sometimes, the end of your journey is just the beginning of another...
