BS: SoT Director's Cut Review
BS: SoT is an adventure game developed by Revolution Software, whose previous titles include Lure of the Temptress and Beneath a Steel Sky. The Director's Cut adds several new elements, such as animated portraits, interaction markers, a hint system and an extra chapter from Nico's perspective. You play George Stobbart, an American tourist in Paris who is an unwilling witness to an assassination attempt at a cafe. From there you will start on a journey to discover the truth behind an international conspiracy, aided by a French journalist named Nicole Collard. The Director's Cut adds new details to the story through Nico's chapter. As expected, the player will control both characters through certain sections of the game. The story is interesting, revolving around the Knights Templar and their quest for the sword of Baphomet. The gameplay revolves around solving puzzles by talking to people and interacting with objects and the environment. Nico's extra chapter adds some interesting and difficult puzzles, some involving cryptology. The player is advised to use the integrated hint system if he encounters difficulties. Solving each puzzle offers a satisfaction found only in the adventure game genre. This being an enhanced version of the original, the overall presentation of the game is improved, graphics and sound included. Although some of the new additions, such as the animated portraits or the interaction markers, add almost nothing to the original experience, the hint system does manage to help the player when needed. This game is recommended for gamers who like to dabble in puzzle solving while enjoying an interesting story. It might even serve as an introduction to the adventure game genre for new players, provided they have the patience required for such a game. GOG offers both the original and the Director's Cut at a reasonable price, along with manual, wallpaper and more. The Grand Master says go buy it. Five explosive accordions out of five.
