Dad got this game for me as part of Load Star magazine which came with free stuff in a menu system which dad put in the C64 hard drive .

Hell we still have this game but we do not have a good tv for it as you have a choice of good picture and no sound or no picture and good sound.

Thanks for this replay. I had this damn game and could never beat it. I only found out years later my game was glitched and there was no way TO beat it.

OMG the thunder sound is awesome!

So... mmh to finish this game you must 'use' some kind of poison at Stonehenge? Well, that makes sense...

I played Sorcery for the first time around 1992 and failed to finish it. You can't make any mistake if you want to win. I finally did it and can't understand one thing. How come a game which can and must be completed in 3 minutes was sold in 1984 and people paid for it? When I first played it I was sure the game had more levels but it didn't. Would you pay for 3 minutes of fun? I don't know how expensive it was but it still puzzles me. Wasn't it an insult for customers?

@pilarp23 - Certainly by today's standards at least, but this was a very well programmed game for its time, and probably used up all the RAM C64 had to offer. Also, a fantastic car game like Last V8 was actually only some 2 minutes long, but I still never managed to complete it lol (ignorance is bliss)

Schmu, you are a great man for doing this and your skills are nice too!

Did you use any glitches or can this game legitly be beat this fast?

[DerSchmu]

@SpiffyBiscuits5

The problem ist this game MUST beat so fast.

The sorcerylogo down-right is the time limit.

when the symbol is empty the game is over.

I don`t use glitches but an tool assisted emulator.

Thanks! As you can see at the C64 Game Endings site there are three different kind of endings.

So um, you land on a hot grill and it restores your health?

Isn't that how Bobby Flay restores his health? By landing on a hot grill?
