In the realm of point-and-click adventure games, the Broken Sword series holds a prestigious position, renowned as Europe's top franchise in this genre, traditionally dominated by PC gaming.

This revamped edition brings the classic adventure to your fingertips, offering a seamless experience on the go.

Set against the backdrop of Paris, the game follows the enthralling journey of American tourist George Stobbart and journalist Nico Collard.

This event plunges George into a centuries-old conspiracy, leading him from Paris to Syria, Ireland, and beyond.

As suggested by its title, Reforged introduces a visually enhanced experience. The already stunning graphics of Broken Sword have been upgraded with fully reanimated and repainted visuals, ensuring a smoother and more immersive gameplay experience.
