Well Done! – Broken Sword 1: Director's Cut Review

The graphics, storyline, mechanics and flow are all well done. Sometimes the woman is the primary character and sometimes the man. You help them along on their quest with logic decisions and explorations. This is not a hidden object game, or shoot em up game, thank goodness. It is like the classic adventure games but with way better graphics. What I especially like is the hint system. It will give you one clue at a time so you have the opportunity to just get a tiny hint to move along. You can save your game at many different spots, in case you ever want to go back or if you share your iPad, and it automatically saves your spot upon exit. I am getting hours of game play, this is well worth the price of admission (I paid $3.99,which is pretty rare for me). Speaking of which, once you buy the game, that is it. None of the pay for extra hints, or in-app purchases or any additional charges, which I appreciate, because I expect to pay only one reasonable price for a game and that is it! I see this developer has a sequel game to this, which I will get, but I hope they are making more. It looks like the game "Runaway" is of the same genre, but $1 more, so I might check that out down the road....
