Excellent revisit!

I think the original gets a 4/5 as it hasn't aged perfectly. But this version tidies up the artwork, gives more content and adds a hint system. Overall, very effective.

Pretty good

I had heard of this game a long time ago, but never played it until now. It's your standard classic point-and-click adventure. The story is interesting with the history of ancient groups and powers. The puzzles are good and there are a decent amount of hints in the dialogue directing you to where you should go, or what you should do next. There was none of that combine-every-conceivable-object garbage that's found in other, lazier games, for the record. Most, if not all of the solutions actually made sense. The cartoon style graphics aren't my favorite, but I can't fault the game for that. Visually, the game is satisfying. Characters are very stereotypical, but not so much as to be insufferable. Anyway, if you're a fan of classic adventure games, you'll like this.

Finally!

I thought that a Broken Sword release was very nice, but the remastered edition doesn't do the trick for me... That's not a problem any more as you also get the original ^^ Thanks GOG, doing a great job!
