Fantastic!

Please can we have another!!!!!

Buggy

I cant seem to use the inventory items properlly. They seem buggy, I have little doubt they are. Anyone else have issues using items (where the hints tell you to)?

Church?

Anyone else having a problem at the church? Doing the wordsearch on the tomb...the hint says "find psalms xxxi+xxi" and on the tomb there is no such thing. Stuck at this one spot! Other than this, this game is absolutely incredible. Definitely recommended, adventure gamer or not.

excellent

absolutely fantastic..its true the items menu was lil buggy and sometimes took couple tries to examine something, but story was good, animation was very decent, artwork fantastic...maybe if the character walked lil faster would be nice :P but overall very good game...and worth the cost...looking forward to a broken sword 2?

Awesome!

I was a bit cautious after reading so many good reviews - Sometimes I think theyre all just friends of the programmers but this game was great and I hope its an indication on the games to come for the iPhone. The voice work was good a bit rough in areas but overall well done. A few areas its a bit hard to figure out to get the actions right - a few times I had to resort to the hints only to find I had been doing it right the whole time just it wasnt catching hopefully an later update will adress those areas. But I whole heartly recommend the game and it screams play me on the iPad!

PLEASE HELP!!!

I am 88 percent done and stuck in the well. Iv entered the first roman numeral correctly and when I try to enter the second one it says "wrong"! From what iv been told the second one is "41" ( 14 plus 27). If someone has a different number please please let me know! I want to finish this game sooo bad!

STUCK

Amazing game but I am stuck after completing around 80% of the game.... The hint tells me to go to Spain and I also cant go to Spain as its not lit up on the map.... Its grey and I cant cluck on it!!! Someone pleaseeee help =( I cant wait to finish the game....

Sick!

This game is fun and challenging..good job.

Arghh

I have the exact same problem as simfar. Please somebody help or get the bug fixed

Loving it!!

Why arent more iPhone games like this??!! Well done, easy controls, so reminicent of the console games. Such a memory trip hearing the voices again.

Great game!

Just beat it in 15 hours. Absolutely amazing game. Like a book I couldnt put down. Please make more!

Great mystery

Love there kinds of games. This one is up there on my list. After I figured out how to use my items that is. Not a bug after all.

Lots of fun

Loved all the characters, the story was excellent. I was never bored while playing this game, enjoyed every moment of it. Definitley worth the $5.

Careful about this update. REQUIRES firmware 4.0.

This version will NOT run on any iphone before iOS version 4.0. I updated the game to 1.2 then I could not play before updating iphone OS. I had problems and had to do a clean 4.0 update. All my progress was lost. Patches and updates should not require firmware updates. Sorry to say, you might alienate some of your devoted fans with such actions.

Locked out of my own game

I paid for this game and enjoyed it - until it updated and now requires OS 4.0 so I can no longer play it. I own a 1st gen iPod Touch so upgrading the OS is not an option. NOT happy.

Great Game!!!

Really good game, lots of hours of fun. Great story and a must buy for a distraction once in a while.

Best Point n Click Adventure on iPhone

For some unknown reason, I never managed to play any of the Broken Sword series on PC, but this classic style of 3rd Person Adeventure Game is by far my favorite genre in gaming: the Sierra titles, the Lucas Arts titles, etc. I hope the high level of quality and the natural feeling interface of this game foreshadows a resurgance of 3rd person "point and clicks" on this platform. Its too bad about the iOS4 related technical issues leading to 1 star reviews, but its running perefctly on my iPhone 3GS with iOS4, so it deserves nothing less than a perfect score. Now to get back to tracking down that killer clown. :)

Very great point-and-click adventure!!

I just recently discovered this classic through the AppStore and I was very please to see these kind of games coming back to life! I missed Point-and-click adventure and with a little interface redesing to fit the iPhone, it works like a charm! Broken Sword has complete voice-over, great interface designed for the iPhone, a context-hint system, a tap system to see what object you can interact with within the area. I enjoyed the game from the start to finish. I hope to see all the sequels on iPhone!

An excellant game!

This is certainly one of the best games Ive played on my iTouch. Amazing art work/graphics, an engaging story based on historical events, interesting puzzles & challenges. I do not hesitate in recommending thBroken Sword to someone looking for a solid, story based game.

A good effort...

Some good visuals but this is a port and so it doesnt interface very well for the touch... often have difficulty tapping the correct spot. Built in help is great if you get stuck with one of those issues. Good sound and solid game play.
