Broken Sword 2 holds up better than a lot of '90s adventure games.
invites you to join us in revisiting PC gaming days gone by. Today, Ben enjoys a dose of Stobbart snark in Broken Sword 2.
However, when she's kidnapped by two Central American thugs, George sets off to rescue her and puts into motion a globetrotting adventure spanning ancient temples, tropical hideaways, murky swamps, and exquisite museums. Before all that, though, he’ll need to escape from this burning building. Remember the metal vent? Pour the scummy water down there to smoke out the guard. This allows you to sneak in and pinch some dog biscuits , bait the pooch onto a platform, then collapse it. Boom, the dog’s in the drink, and you can climb the fence. These small-scale riddles are satisfying to solve because they’re believable. It feels like you versus the world, rather than you versus the world designer. Even if the puzzles gradually grow in absurdity, their solutions always make sense.
