If you don't have it already: You can get Beneath a Steel Sky for free from there, it plays all the other LucasArts games as well but you have to commit CRIME to get them. |

hehe. broken swords 1& 2 are the only point & clicks i've actually enjoyed through to completion outside of LucasArts games. lucas arts were true masters in the field back in the day. |

Broken Sword was as well written as a novel. A rare thing in the gaming world! |

i agree. it had a decent story, and good writing, which was humourous but not M I style funny, and decent puzzles. also the interface was good considering it wasnt SCUMM |

Yeah, theres really a lot of great stuff on this page!!! Beware tho, monkey island games and DOTT cant be downloaded, but on they have this game called "shadow of the comet" with a storyline based on H.p Lovecraft. Its worth playing to this day. |
||||||||
|
|

I'm old enough to remember text based adventure games. :>N You go North, you are in a dark forest S,E,W :>W You go West, a troll blocks your path Challenge Him (Y,N) :>Y The Troll is strong, he injurs you (-5 Stamina) But you win. You find 4 Gold pieces and a magic key. (N,S,E) :> Does anyone know where I could find this type of game online, I'm feeling all nostalgic now! |

I wrote my own on a BBC B in basic. It was at my school and all the female teachers had become sex crazed zombies and you had to shag them then kill them. |

Unfortunately, I found Broken Sword 3 to be a pile of shit compared to the first two games. Not because I am a purist (although I do tend to prefer the old cartoony graphics) but simply because (on PS2 at least) it was a glitchy, ugly, hard-to-control uninspired adventure. The puzzles were also piss poor, and the script came nowhere near the level of the first one. |
