Enter the world of adventure, The Smoking Mirror - the sequel to Circle of Blood and the second game in the Broken Sword series.
pros :
- Great soundtrack.
- Interesting Puzzles.
- Funny dialogues.
cons :
- Very short. The shortest installment in the series.
- Not much remastered treament compared to the first Broken Sword game.
- Great soundtrack, but it's not included as a bonus downloadble in GOG.
After playing the first part, I bought 2+3 together. 2 has none of the puzzles that the original had, and the ones that it does are mostly trial and error or just plain time-consuming.
On the plus side, story and characters are the same and continue to amuse. Sort of. Hope part 3 is better.
The second installment of the Broken Sword series is good and the adventure goes on on a positive funny tone.
The main characters have not changed, they still have the same personalities. New location to visit and to unravel mysteries, which are always surprising and cool.
Some did not like this one like the first one but i think it's worth the first one. They are both great games ad if you have the first Broken Sword, you can't stay away from this one, It won't disappoint you, on the contrary you will be delighted and excited.
For a long time, this one has stayed my favorite.
I got this as a Christmas present many years ago, and its still is one of my favorite adventure games.
It is so relaxing to play, and enjoy good voice-acting.
btw, Try giving the coal to the goat in Quaramonte City. :)
