Shadow Sorcerer is a role-playing video game published in 1991 by Strategic Simulations.

Matt Regan of CU Amiga noted that Shadow Sorcerer largely lacked role-playing elements, but summarized that "for AD&D junkies this is an amusing diversion with a novel outlook for the genre".

He concluded that "Shadow Sorceror is another sign that SSI is finally getting its act together to produce games that justify the mighty AD&D licence".

The One criticises Shadow Sorcerer's combat, stating that the computer has no sense of simple strategy; the players will often get into combat and prepare the wizard to cast a fireball spell, only to find that the rest of the characters have run into the fight and got in the way, completely wasting it.

The One calls Shadow Sorcerer good "to a certain extent", and expresses that it "never quite reaches [what] other RPGs have managed to".
