Paris in the spring. Shots ring out from a gallery… A robbery… a murder… and the beginning of another epic, original Broken Sword adventure. From multi-award winning Revolution Software comes the latest explosive episode in this classic series. Playing as intrepid American George Stobbart and sassy French journalist Nico Collard, you find yourself on the trail of a stolen painting - and a murderous conspiracy. A conspiracy whose roots lie in mysteries older than the written word... Armed only with logic, integrity and a wry sense of humour - can George and Nico save mankind from disaster? Can you solve the secret of the Serpent's Curse? A curse forged by the Devil himself...

Not as good but it's still "got it"....just.
It's worse than 1/2/3 but better than the one before this, is it angel of death? The one where you end up underground some weird temple thing with monks, still could be any of them I guess :wink:

PS1?! It was primarily designed for a mouse on PC - hence it's a point and click adventure. The concept of a point and click adventure, without any of the "get...OVER there!!!!" of a pointing device that lacks the essential precision of a mouse, is laughable.

Heat! Nearly bought this last night for £16.95, glad I held out. Thanks for the post.

Thanks I've been waiting for this price to drop for a while. I used to adore the first two broken swords as a kid!

And now you can get them on Android (iOS too possibly?) and relive those memories!

Hot for the price but this is not the greatest adventure game. I played through it and found some of it a bit boring tbh. It's better than the last one by not by much and not a patch on the earlier Broken Sword games. If you are wanting a decent adventure game the Grim Fandango remaster is a better option if you have not played it already.

I preferred the originals over the Directors Cut. Too many hints and the Nico parts aren't particularly good. If you buy the first two from GOG then it includes the original version too
This thread made me remember Toonstruck though, and turns out that it's now available on GOG so I went and bought that :smile:
Hot deal though! Great game if you're into puzzle adventures
