Press reviews: “This looks like a very interesting combination of old-school turn-based RPG, with a very interesting modern first-person aesthetic, fantastic use of blank space and unreal design.” Rock Paper Shotgun “Come on people, it’s only FIVE BUCKS and it’s one of the best overall gaming experiences I've had in 2013. Pick this up; you won't regret it.” Diehard Gamefan “Paper Sorcerer nevertheless doesn't lose an ounce of its incredible gameplay and in this way maintains an incredible classic charm.” Indie Locus 

Notes: Comic book style violence of fantasy monsters like vampires, werewolves, skeletons, witches, ghosts, goblins against RPG type adventurers, like swordsmen, clerics, mages, etc. Battle attacks have black, white, & red hit effects, which to some may imply bloody effects. Among the party members you can recruit are the healers: Vampire, Cultist, or the Witch, which may be objectionable. Should be clearly represented in the trailer, if you can handle that you should be fine.
