My God, is this BAD.
I don't even know where to begin on this one. I really loved The Shadow of the Templars, wasn't quite happy with The Smoking Mirror, and actually enjoyed The Sleeling Dragon (apart from the really cheap ending). And I played them all in a row just recently, so this isn't nostalgia talking. But this, in my opinion is the absolute low point of the franchise. Even though the controls are quite primitive, the developers managed to mess them up. The inventory menu won't pop up when you need it, the scrolling is awkward, characters get stuck in objects etc. etc. - and I thought The Sleeping Dragon had bad controls. Yeah, and get this: there is no way to skip dialogue lines whatsoever. Perhaps it wouldn't bother me so much, but every time you try to use something in this game or ask a question to your companion your character babbles a 10-second long line of nonsense. The worst thing are the puzzles though. While the original Broken Sword game managed to avoid the frustrating Sierra-style "use fish on banana to open the door" puzzles, this one embraced them in the fullest. Sometimes there is no logic involved at all - on some occasions the game won't allow you to do something until you leave the location, come back and do exactly the same thing again! George's character is badly re-designed and doesn't look anything like himself. The voice-over is quite poorly done in some scenes. The ending is bland as hell. The humour is so bad it hurts.
