The current #GOGSale on #platformers reminded me of an excellent game from my childhood.

Hocus Pocus is an action platformer with a strong exploration focus. You play as an aspiring wizard, zapping monsters with a gun-like finger lightning bolt, collecting treasure, and gathering all the warp crystals to finish each level.

As a late DOS game, it has nice pixel art and smooth, quick gameplay. Warp crystals are placed non-linearly, giving each level something of a mini-metroidvania feel. The game also gives extra points for finishing quickly and for 100% item collection, so I ended up replaying the game to find all the treasure and optimize the routing...and to enjoy the nice snappy gameplay.

Хоттейк: "дорослі" ігри цікаві здебільшого підліткам.
