From: "Ari Nugroho" Date: Thu, 11 Jun 1998 03:35:50 PDT Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars Quick Walkthrough (sorry, no amazing ASCII) Broken Sword is a very good adventure game. It has plenty humor and plenty alternative ways. But, if you don't be careful you'll be killed. I tried it often - on purpose, of course. It's fun to see how silly George Stobbart do his action to save the world, it's even fun to see George Stobbart dies because of his silliness. The one thing not good in the game is the loading time, it sometimes ruin the suspense (you'll see, you'll see), but it's still fun. Well, now let's go to the game! 1.Paris Pick up the newspaper,walk to the roadworks. After Rosso's interview in the cafe, talk to Nico.
