Sep 23, 2018Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse is a great point&click adventure, an heir worthy of the first two original games from Revolution Software.
-
Sep 23, 2018Joining many other quality examples of its genre on Switch, Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse continues the series' excellent storytelling and puzzle structure, with what is sure to please both fan and newcomer alike with fiendish brainteasers and the optional hint system. A more contained story structure, and character movement hitches aside, point-and-click adventure devotees will find a lot to love here.

Oct 3, 2018Broken Sword 5 arrives on Switch with no significant new elements. After the first two chapters, this is probably the best of the series, with a good plot and well written enigmas.

Sep 20, 2018Broken Sword 5 delivers a competent point-and-click, with a cast of colorful characters, a rollicking-if-cheesy adventure, and solid puzzle design. Some minor issues with gameplay and puzzle design don’t harm the game’s quality too much, and in such an undeserved genre they’re forgivable. The biggest issue with the game is that it is a bit too married to convention both in plot and gameplay. Broken Sword 5 won't stick with like classics of the point-and-click Golden Age, but it’s still a solid adventure and I’ll be keeping my eyes open for future (and past) travels of George and Nico.

Sep 21, 2018The Serpent's Curse isn't the best entry in the beloved Broken Sword series, but it's still an enjoyable adventure, particularly on the Nintendo Switch.
-
Sep 20, 2018It can’t shake its past, running as it does through every beat of its game design, for better and worse, but The Serpent’s Curse concludes satisfyingly, wrapping in such a way that has one just about forgiving, if not forgetting, its more frustrating moments.
