Revolution Software’s celebrated graphic adventure Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror – Remastered is now available on Google Play – just 10 days before the end of the world predicted by the Mayan prophecy which features extensively in the game’s plot.
Set six months after the events of Broken Sword: The Director’s Cut, the game reunites George Stobbart and journalist Nicole Collard in an epic adventure spanning the globe. When Nico takes possession of a mysterious stone relic, she cannot possibly suspect that they will quickly become embroiled in the terrifying machinations of a deadly drug baron, intent on releasing divine forces that will annihilate mankind at the end of the final Mayan epoch – on December 21st 2012.
Charles Cecil said ahead of the game’s Android release:
“When the original game was released in 1997, December 21st 2012 seemed a long, long time away. I’m delighted that Android owners are now able to play the game, but I would urge them to hurry.”
Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror – Remastered is a stunning update to the million-selling original. Along with an exclusive new interactive digital comic, from Watchmen co-creator Dave Gibbons, the game boasts fully animated facial expressions, enhanced graphics throughout, high quality music as well as a context-sensitive hint system, and diary.
Charles added:
“I am very proud of the reception to Broken Sword – Director’s Cut on Android, with the game maintaining a 5-star user review score on the Google Play Store. But let’s hope the prophecy doesn’t turn out to be true – we’ve Broken Sword – the Serpent’s Curse to finish, and playing Broken Sword II – Remastered will offer a perfect refresher ahead of the series’ return to 2D.”
Enhancements to Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror – Remastered over the original include stunning animated facial expressions, context-sensitive hint system and diary, improved background and animation graphics, cut scene movies greatly enhanced both graphically and in terms of audio, high quality music as originally composed by Barrington Pheloung, bonus interactive digital comic drawn by Dave Gibbons, as well as full English speech with option for subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish or Italian.
