Telegraph writes: "There was a time, not too long ago, when video games were not the pyrotechnic lightshows they are today. The technical wizardry of the current hardware allows for some fantastic, immersive experiences that pull you into their world with an intoxicating blend of high-resolution visuals and rich surround sound.
In the 1990s, however, things had to be a little more subtle, when story and characterisation were king: the era of the point-and-click adventure game."
Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars celebrated its 25th anniversary in October 2021. To mark such a momentous occasion, Alternative Magazine Online is proud to present an exclusive look back at the game’s development with British video game designer Charles Cecil, co-founder and Managing Director of Revolution Software!
Good series, none surpassed the first for me though. Loved playing it on my PSX.
Thanks for commenting, Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars is one of my favourite adventure games of all time (as I'm sure you can tell). It's crazy that Virgin didn't want to publish it on PlayStation!
Yes, considering their reason not to and what they did end up publishing/published in the past is very odd.
Broken Sword is point and click royalty. Charles Cecil spilled the beans on its future, its Nintendo Switch port and more.
From GameWatcher: "Revolution Software are celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a special collection of the company's full catalogue of adventure games, including the Broken Sword series, Beneath a Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress and In Cold Blood. The ‘Revolution: the 25th Anniversary Collection’ will be released on the 11th March, 2016 at a price of £29.99 / €39,99 exclusively for the PC."
I think it's about time I jump into this series. Good to see they will package everything into one neat, little unit.
