Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged Review
One of the greatest adventure games has been given the 4K treatment - Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged.

Having played this during the Steam Next Fest, I have to say it was a brilliant experience. It has a hint of Broken Sword, but Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit packs its own punch. Coincidentally, the game is helmed by the art director of Broken Sword 2.5.

We’ve worked really hard to create a compelling world to explore with a thrilling mystery to hook players in, so we are really looking forward to them giving it a try and we hope they will check out the new trailer in the meantime!Šarūnas Leda, Game Director

Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit is out on Steam from the 6th of May, so add it to your wishlist now if you haven’t already done so.
