The Sorcerer's Apprentice — About this game
The Sorcerer's Apprentice sends Dave through six districts filled with enchanted enemies. Six colours of magic offer different projectile paths: some shots bounce from walls while others arc over obstacles. Matching an enemy’s magic colour can protect you from its attacks, so read the encounter before firing. Stronger Merlinean spells use short touch-screen tasks, and magical abilities can grow during the adventure. Start by learning one spell’s path and keeping room to move, then switch colours when the threat changes. The original DS game also unlocks timed and score challenges for two to four people taking turns on one system.
