Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror

Rating:
Summary: A great adventure
Review: Although not quite up to the standard of the first Broken Sword game, this is still a very good adventure. The humor is great, the puzzles are pretty much ok and the story really grabs you. Beware - there are some bugs in the game, so save often.

Summary: Excellent, but the first one was better
Review: That about says it all, Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars was better, but this one is pretty darn good too. The graphics might even be a little better.

Summary: A fun worldwide hunt
Review: This game is actually a sequel to 'Circle of Blood' and continues the adventures of George Stobard and his girlfriend Nico. Like its previous game the animation and artwork is excellent and the game makes you think hard in a lot of places.

That said, parents... be careful getting this game for young children. There's some blood and a couple of gory scenes (The game focuses on an Aztek theme, and we all know how Azteks sacrificed people).

It's best to consider Smoking Mirror as sort of a murder/mystery. You CAN die in this game, but not for doing things like clicking one pixel too far off the edge of a cliff. The art in the game is high quality animation and it's obvious that the crew that worked on it cared about what they were doing.

The game works hard to keep your interest though. One moment you're wandering through the subways of London and another you're hacking through the jungles of Brazil. Another cool side aspect is that the two main characters often split up and you get to adventure from two different perspectives, other times you work together as a team.

Your goal in this game is to locate three stones that will seal up an evil Aztek god that has been sealed for over a thousand years before he's freed by a power-hungry madman. The search takes you all across the globe and through all sorts of adventures... and then ends in a mighty climax in the Aztek Temple against the baddies. All the elements of a great adventure.

Summary: I Love this game! Why don't they make more like this instead
Review: This game was sooooo good. You could figure things out and have a great adventure without all that shoot 'em up stuff and illogical puzzles (like Beyond Atlantic)This game was great! I would like to know why these game makers don't make more adventure games like this instead of those action, shoot 'em up, blow 'em up, have to use ten keys on the keyboard at the same time, games? And it's a funny game. So much fun.
