"Sorcery Is for Saps" is a 200,000-word interactive fantasy novel by Hilari Bell and Anna-Maria Crum, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

Will your powers save the cursed king--or will you turn traitor and seize the throne yourself? You can probably break a simple kindness curse, but there are dark forces at work and you may be in over your head before you can say “Abracadabra.”

Throw in your lot with scheming councilors, the attractive heir, or even go to work for the invaders. But whether you choose to save the king or your own neck, one thing is clear—this is your big chance!

‪Magic, power, or true love—which will you choose? In "Sorcery Is for Saps," you'll find it's easier than waving a wand.

• ‪Be a hero or turn traitor, seduced by a sexy spy.
• ‪Play as male or female, gay, straight, or bi.
• ‪Steal a rival wizard's inventions.
• ‪Fight the maniacal, mechanical, magical monkey.
• Power up for politics, succeed at sorcery, or just get really, really rich.
• ‪Trade barbs with your snarky familiar. Or will you kow-tow to a sarcastic ferret?
• End up as a sorcerer, a royal councilor, a villain, or a mouse. (Literally. You can be turned into a mouse.)

Weird

The background Image for the game is blank for me, idk if anybody else has this problem


Was excited for what?

I love these games. I've download every single one, for several years. I of course was excited about this one. But every-time I go to continue my adventures, it restarts to the very beginning. Please fix this!!


Pretty good!

The story is one of my favorites so far. Most of the choices don't seem to make any difference on the plot (so not a lot of replayability value), but instead they make the story very personal - your choices affect how your character acts but not necessarily the outcome. In a way that seems more impressive since the writing still makes sense and flows better than some stories that seem to take your choices and pop them into premade blanks but branch into many different success/fail options.


A Big Surprise

I didn't have the greatest expectations before playing this game, but I ended up loving it. The plot was well thought out and keeps you interested. I also ended up personally liking and caring about my own main character, which isn't easy to do in these games. The relationships with other characters was also great, whether it be romance or friendship. In the end, I feel that there could be so much more to this game. It's a giant world and there's still stuff to be written about. Whether it be a direct sequel or different characters in the same setting, I'm interested in a continuation of this story.


Loved it but....

Fantastic game that kept me interested in the characters and the story. Wish it wasn't so linear though


Potential for sequel

As a reader of just about all choice books I can fairly say the following. This is a surprisingly good read. Despite the app skin, and my reservations the author did a great job of making you care and laugh while reading the story. A few mis types but over all very good. I'll read it again.


Great!!

The free chapters were engaging, and purchasing the full story was a no brainer!! Your choices you make, guide a path to who you want your sorcerer to be. There is ABSOLUTELY replay potential!! Loved it‼️


Super Fun and Engaging

I love how long this game is, and all the relationships you can develop with different characters. The world-building is pretty fantastic as well. Will be playing more from this company!!


A fun read that draws you in!

I've recently started playing these games, and Sorcery is for Saps doesn't disappoint! I didn't want to put the game down because I was so absorbed in the story and didn't know what to expect next. My favorite part was the world-building, and I wish there was more expanding on it. A sequel maybe? Lol. My only suggestion would be to make the romance a bit more prominent because the romantic aspect of the ending is a bit sudden. The romantic interests don't seem to be of much importance after the beginning, especially since they weren't even included in the Stats screen. It doesn't lessen the story's strengths though and I'm already excited to replay the game!


Epic Favorite Game <3

I played a male Magic-person who got to marry the handsome prince, do some awesome magic, argue with a witty ferret and save the kingdom. I'm happy as can be. Highly recommend. :)
