Revolution Software has announced plans to release Broken Sword - the Smoking Mirror: Remastered for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch "very shortly", and for PC and Mac "very early next year".
The title will improve on elements of the original adventure game while adding new features like an interactive digital comic, fully animated facial expressions, enhanced graphics and a context-sensitive hint system, according to Revolution MD Charles Cecil.
From GameWatcher: "Revolution Software are celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a special collection of the company's full catalogue of adventure games, including the Broken Sword series, Beneath a Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress and In Cold Blood. The ‘Revolution: the 25th Anniversary Collection’ will be released on the 11th March, 2016 at a price of £29.99 / €39,99 exclusively for the PC."
I think it's about time I jump into this series. Good to see they will package everything into one neat, little unit.

STP - "For gamers who grew up on point-and-click adventures, the return of this sophisticated genre to the App Store has been extremely satisfying. Deep, story-driven adventures are perfect for long plane or train rides, and the touchscreen allows you to tap your way through detailed scenes. We’ve already covered Myst and Monkey Island in our 50 Best Game Series, but there’s another great adventure series that you should know about on iOS: Broken Sword."
