By Marty Mulrooney

BrokenSword25Cover

A fan project 10 years in the making, Broken Sword 2.5 is a very special game indeed. German-based MindFactory have created a lovingly crafted tribute that is free to download and retains the charming graphics of the original 2D games.

My latest review for www.adventureclassicgaming.com is now live!

Blade Runner (1997, PC) is a point and click adventure game based on the classic 1982 science fiction film of the same name. Created by Westwood Studios, players took control of ‘Blade Runner’ Roy McCoy, hunting down escaped replicants in 2019 Los Angeles. For fans of the film and adventure gamers in general this is still a must-buy. I recommend hunting down a copy!
