Description
One more time George Stobbart and Nico Collard must travel the world, wrestling danger and piecing together the clues that will unravel the secrets of the Sleeping Dragon.

They are drawn into a terrifying conspiracy to harness on an ancient power. Brought together by fate, coincidence and the intriguing mystery, they will fight sinister forces, uncover an ancient conspiracy, and discover a fiendish source of pure evil.

Lured into the steamy jungles of the Congo, eerie castles in Prague, the chick back-streets of Paris and the historic English village of Glastonbury, the duo must unravel the mystery involving the 'Voynich Manuscript' which holed the secrets of the ultimate evil power, The Sleeping Dragon and save the mankind.

From the creators of Lure of the Temptress and Beneath a Steel Sky goes the Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon, the third installment in the Broken Sword series.

Not sure it's properly playable.

I've been playing it very little, as every time I save and try to reload, the load file crashes the program. The changing of audio and video settings don't save and don't update either, and with the very long, UNSKIPPABLE cut scenes in this game, it's not exactly encouraging. The little I have played of it seems way less fun than the original game, though I'll try again, and hopefully the save function will work this time, as I hope to play all the games based on the fun of the first two. That said, I may skip this one, if saving doesn't work. Don't want to have to sit through all those damn cut scenes again and again...

Boring

Terrible controls (keyboard) after being used to mouse control. All you seem to be doing is pulling/pushing/climbing crates if you know where to put them. Had to rebuy the game as my original CD version rarely started. Wish I hadn't bothered.

Love it

I honestly believe this game is underrated and bashed for nothing. And clearly the inspiration for Indigo Phrohecy's action sequences. Loved every minute of it. The story is awsome.

Crates damn crates

The graphics are beautiful, with lovely scenery and amazing cutscenes. George and Nico are as attractive and witty as in BS I & II. The story line follows on from the previous two games with Templars etc... The disappointment for me was the lack of the logical-style puzzles of BS I & II, replaced by endless (not another!) crate puzzle. Perhaps the designer was running out of puzzle ideas. I found the interface weird at first (point and click with no mouse!!), but got used to it:. However, it is a pain in a couple of timed puzzles (eg, locking up the guard in Montfoucon) where one has to run with ecentric camera angle changes. There was a well done and even moving part with Bruno's sacrifice and George's grief. Looks as though it has been set up for a sequel (Good news!?) because where did Petra go?

Debería haberse llamado Broken box

Malo malo malo. Hace todo lo que no debe hacer una aventura gráfica, puzzles invertidos, exógenos, repetitivos, morir para aprender a hacer algo (y morir MUCHO) personajes insulsos, escenarios innecesarios, partes de sigilo interminables... No solo el peor juego de la saga, también una de las peores aventuras gráficas. Aún más flagrante por el hecho de venir de donde venían los creadores...
