Paris in the spring. Shots ring out from a gallery... A robbery... a murder... and the beginning of another epic, original Broken Sword adventure.
Playing as intrepid American George Stobbart and sassy French journalist Nico Collard, you find yourself on the trail of a stolen painting - and a murderous conspiracy. A conspiracy whose roots lie in mysteries older than the written word...
Armed only with logic, integrity and a wry sense of humour - can George and Nico save mankind from disaster?
The game will be released in two episodes with Episode 2 due for release as a free update in Q1 2014. Revolution has also recently confirmed that the game will be released for Vita (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/426393/broken-sword-the-serpents-curse-confirmed-for-vita/).
