The Sorceror's Appraisal

The Sorceror's Appraisal is an adventure game starring Davy Jones, a magician of the Reality-on-the-Norm universe. He wants to prove to himself and his parents that he is ready for a great magic. Performing the specific ritual he should traverse between parallel worlds and return home.

The gameplay is common for most of AGI's games. The player moves the character on the screen with the arrow keys and types in the commands in English language. The protagonist can die with various extra death animations. Unlike many AGI games however, no points are earned for successful actions.
