When I heard that there's a remake of the first Broken Sword, it flared up a dormant desire inside me to relive the nightmare. I played this way back in college as a dare from one of my friends who lent me the game and called it 'The most boring game' ever created. I slapped it in my Playstation and I was hooked to the story ever since, minus the puzzles. I painstakingly finished the game in 2 months (one month of thinking on how to get past the GOAT in Ireland. That's 30 days, 2 hours a day, before I call it quits and swap to other games <insert Final Fantasy VII, or VIII, or Tomb Raider, or other new games that may come>). At that time, there was no internet yet. Google was created three years after playing this in 97 (but there's already gameFAQs to check, or is there?). So there's no way of cheating your way to solve these point and click games before, but to play and enjoy the tormenting puzzles. I'm just reliving the nostalgia of whacking my brains, try to figure out 'the next thing' to do. Which, by the way, had been my key to a successful career of troubleshooting Network Problems (Information Technology), thanks to these types of games. The game is not for everybody, if you enjoy the feeling of solving puzzles (or have an itch in your brain, whenever you can't figure out, the 'why'), and had mastered thinking and dropping your logic at the same time, then I think you'll enjoy this game. Otherwise, it's just another number statistic in you game list, and never bother opening.

30 years later, this remains one of the very bests point and click ever made. And now it's even better.

TLDR: Broken Sword: Shadows of the Templars – Reforged is a nostalgic blast from the past that holds up remarkably well, played here on Steam Deck. Charming, funny, occasionally maddening puzzles, great new visuals, and a story that’s still good fun all these years later. Solid 8/10. Graphics: A big upgrade on the original. The new cut scenes are beautifully rendered and very welcome. There’s a lovely touch where pressing select on the controller flips between the original art design and the new visuals instantly, a nice nod to where the game came from. Story: As good fun as it was when I first played it. George is very much the main hero here, Nico barely gets a look in compared to her role in later entries in the series, something I’d completely forgotten until replaying this. The puzzles range from clever to absolutely ridiculous, but that’s part of the charm. Audio: Music score is pretty good, true to the original, but the music/FX balance feels a little janky and could use a rework. Mechanics: Point and click, and a little fiddly on Steam Deck if I’m honest. Feels like it was designed with mouse and keyboard in mind originally, so a bit more control work for handheld would be welcome. Performance-wise: My only real technical gripe is that audio doesn’t reconnect after resuming from sleep mode on Steam Deck, meaning a full quit and relaunch is needed each time. Not a huge task, but a bit annoying. Length: Not an extensive game, roughly 10-12 hours if you take your time and read everything, but a very enjoyable, leisurely experience throughout. Conclusion: A faithful, lovingly updated remaster that’s charming, funny, and still worth your time. Solid 8/10, mainly for the effort put into bringing it into the modern day.

I wish the section from the director's cut was included. I didn't know it was not included which dosent make sense to me why it's not included. Was it to make it on later date and sell it again to make more money?

Overall the game is great, a nice update to the original. HOWEVER - I much preferred the directors cut that was released as it had extra puzzles in and I loved them! I had thought this was going to be the same. If I knew those extra games were not included I probably would not have bothered paying for this. Shame!
