In the realm of point-and-click adventures, the Broken Sword series has long been a towering presence, renowned as Europe's most successful franchise in this genre traditionally dominated by PC gaming. Now, mobile enthusiasts can dive into the revamped experience with Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged, available on both iOS and Android devices.
The story unfolds in Paris, where American tourist George Stobbart and journalist Nico Collard find themselves entangled in a gripping mystery. The adventure kicks off with George witnessing the bombing of a Parisian café and the escape of a mysterious clown, propelling him into a centuries-old conspiracy that spans continents, from Paris to Syria, Ireland, and beyond.
As suggested by its title, Reforged enhances the original game with a visually remastered experience. The already impressive graphics have been refined, featuring fully reanimated and repainted visuals that bring the world of Broken Sword to life like never before.
