Simon the Sorcerer Origins joins Steam Fest!

Developer Smallthing Studios and publisher ININ Games are thrilled to announce that Simon the Sorcerer Origins will be part of Steam Next Fest, starting today at 6 p.m. MEZ.

Classic charm meets modern magic in the long-awaited prequel to one of the most iconic adventure games of all time.

During the festival, players will have the exclusive opportunity to experience a playable demo featuring a specific section of Chapter 3 of the game. The demo will be available only on Steam for the duration of the event that will end on October the 20th.

Simon the Sorcerer Origins is a lovingly crafted prequel to the iconic 1993 point-and-click adventure series Simon the Sorcerer. Blending modern puzzle design, hand-painted 2D visuals, and fully voiced storytelling, the game reintroduces Simon’s trademark humor, wit, and magical misadventures for a new generation — while staying true to the charm and personality of the beloved classics.

The full release of Simon the Sorcerer Origins is set for October 28, 2025, on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, Mac, and Linux.
