Story-wise, the game follows blond-haired, smug-faced American tourist George Stobbart, caught in an explosion outside a small Parisian café during his vacation to the French capital. As he investigates the bombing, seemingly the work of a psychotic clown, George is embroiled in a globe-spanning conspiracy. It's an epic tale of historical mystery, cults and murder - all, as the game's name suggests - leading a tantalising trail through the classic Knights Templar mythology.
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!
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.
