What’s New in Broken Sword – Shadow of the Templars: Reforged Mobile?

The mobile version boasts fully remastered audio and visuals in high definition, complete with stunning 4K support. The hauntingly atmospheric soundtrack by Barrington Pheloung continues to set the mood, while some areas have been so beautifully enhanced that they feel like an entirely new game, all while preserving the original's cherished atmosphere.

The narrative remains unchanged, following the adventures of George Stobbart, a curious American who inadvertently stumbles into an ancient conspiracy involving the Knights Templar. Teaming up with Nico Collard, a sharp-witted journalist, they embark on a thrilling journey from Parisian cafés to ancient ruins in Syria, from Spanish backstreets to mysterious crypts in Ireland.

The puzzles are as challenging as ever, spread across various locations like the museum and the sick ward, with solutions often requiring actions taken elsewhere in the game.
