Last week we've asked you to post questions to Mike and Simon Woodroffe, the creators of brilliant and funny adventures of teenage wizard - [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/simon_the_sorcerer]Simon the Sorcerer. We've chosen the most interesting, in our opinion, community questions and sent them over to the Woodroffes. We didn't have to wait long for their reply and here you can read what they had to say. We're already preparing another Q&A with the developers of some great classic games so stay tuned for the announcement.

Wait, wait, wait.... These guys worked on the fantastic 'Call of Cthulhu'?! *mind blown*

Well if there was ever an incentive to put down $19.99 for Call of Cthulhu, this would be it I guess.

Thanks to Mike and Simon Woodroffe for the replies, it gave some detail of the time of and decisions that were made for the first three games.

I hate to say it, but I detest the episodic gaming thing. Developers and the gaming press tend to hail it as a concept so advanced that it could only have come to us through time travel, but I have yet to see an implementation of it that convinces me it's not a horrible idea.

So umm..the real Simon 3 on GOG, yeah? You've got a publisher right here. :D

Now there's an idea!

Some great answers there, and very quick too!
I'd also like to +1 the idea for the real Simon 3, in 2D of course!

Have you seen Telltale's? They pretty much live up to every promise of episoding gaming, short and consistent release schedule for smaller games that don't sacrifice high quality for speed and end up being cheaper in the long run

Only the Sam & Max games (I utterly despise Homestar Runner and the other series don't really interest me), but they don't convince me. They're okay games, but if a typical gaming session is a handful of popcorn, each Sam & Max episode is an individual kernel.

I'd also like to give a "Hell Yeah!" to this idea. :)

Awesome! They picked my question! :D Very interesting answer, so they might actually release Simon the Sorcerer as episodes!
