Old-school adventure game fix satisfied
I never played the original version, so I was glad to see an old-school adventure game remade for the DS. I haven't finished it yet, but I'm having a ton of fun with it so far. The puzzles are interesting and fairly ... Read Full Review

Its sort of like when Super Mario Bros. made its way to the SNES.
Broken Sword of course is a game that originally was on the GBA. Now they made one for the DS for $30. However, this one is better and has some additional game play. My ratings by category Sound: C (Music = D & SF... Read Full Review

It's amazing how well it's stood the test of time.
I'm really amazed with this game, it was a long time since I first played it but even now, more than ten years after it was first released, I don't think it feels especially dated. It's something to do with the effort... Read Full Review

A game which more people dislike than like...but the few who like it will love it!
This game relies entirely on the story. A bad storyline with this type of game means a bad game! Well you will be happy to hear that the storyline is fantastic. And if you like Point and Click games, Broken Sword 1 will... Read Full Review

An underrated adventure mystery game that will become addicting and challenging!
Broken Sword is a great adventure game involving a mystery surrounding the Knights Templar. While not actually an action game, it is more of a detective game where you solve puzzles, interview people, and travel to many ... Read Full Review
