About the Broken Sword Series
Broken Sword is a point-and-click adventure franchise that debuted in 1996 on PC and PlayStation. The games focus on investigative gameplay, requiring navigation through hand-drawn or 3D-rendered environments and the systematic collection of objects to overcome environmental obstacles.
The series follows the protagonist George Stobbart, an American patent lawyer, and his companion, photojournalist Nico Collard. Throughout the five mainline titles, you manage an inventory sidebar to combine specific items, such as the Manhole Cover or the Grappling Hook, to resolve mechanical locks or traverse inaccessible areas. The narrative structure relies on dialogue branching, where you select specific questions from a menu to extract information from non-player characters.
Technically, the franchise transitioned from 2D pre-rendered backgrounds in The Shadow of the Templars and The Smoking Mirror to 3D character models in The Sleeping Dragon. The series features over 50 distinct locations, spanning cities like Paris, Syria, and Ireland. Notable antagonists include the Neo-Templars and various members of the Hashshashin. You progress by solving inventory-based logic puzzles, which remain consistent across the series, and utilizing specific tools like the Spyglass or Decoder Ring to advance through the plot.
