About Sorcerer: Award‑Winning HTML5 Puzzle Adventure
The Sorcerer has earned the title of “Best Puzzle Game” in the HTML5 Most Wanted contest, proving it’s more than just a pastime—it’s a benchmark for design, challenge, and enjoyment.
Game Features
- Three increasingly complex levels that test logic and timing.
- Optimized 960 × 540 resolution that scales fluidly to any screen size.
- Full support for the latest web browsers and all major mobile platforms.
- Enhanced audio experience on desktop; mobile audio tuned for maximum compatibility.
Construction and Technology
Developed entirely with native HTML5/JavaScript, powered by the CreateJS library (createjs.com). No proprietary frameworks—just clean, efficient code that works everywhere.
Mobile & Audio Considerations
- Mobile playback defaults to muted; audio layers can be enabled via the game’s settings.
- Some browsers on Windows Phone may not support the
<audio>tag—audio is silently disabled on those devices. - To ensure a completely silent gaming experience, consult the in‑game help section.
