In the realm of point-and-click adventures, the Broken Sword series stands as a towering achievement, particularly in Europe where it's celebrated as one of the most successful franchises in a genre typically dominated by PC games. Now, mobile enthusiasts can dive into the revamped world of Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged, available on both iOS and Android platforms, bringing the classic adventure to a new audience.
The story kicks off in Paris, where American tourist George Stobbart and journalist Nico Collard find themselves entangled in a thrilling mystery. The adventure begins with a bang as George witnesses the bombing of a Parisian café and the escape of a mysterious clown, propelling him into a centuries-old conspiracy that spans from Paris to Syria, Ireland, and beyond.
True to its name, Reforged delivers a visually enhanced experience. The game's already impressive visuals have been further refined, featuring fully reanimated and repainted graphics that enhance the immersive experience.
Choose wisely - Broken Sword appeals to players who prefer a more serious tone over the humor often found in point-and-click games. With no rubber chickens in sight, the game offers a globe-trotting plot and a complex narrative that has been praised for outclassing even Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code. Our own publication boldly stated that Broken Sword "effortlessly outclasses Dan Brown's similarly themed and tricksy novel," sparking a bit of controversy but underscoring the game's compelling storytelling.
If you're eager to unravel the intricate narrative, tackle ingenious puzzles, and embark on a global adventure, you can pre-register for Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged on your preferred platform right now.
